Drawing Days at the Crypt Gallery is an exhibition of drawings by Finnish-British artist Heini King. Drawing Days celebrates drawing as a medium for gentle observation and as a tool for creative discovery. The exhibition is organised in the context of a group residency taking place at the Gallery. While looking at the exhibition visitors can engage with the historic building as well as the five participating artists’ practices who are currently working in the space. The works in Drawing Days celebrate the physicality of drawing – what does a large piece of paper look like after a drawing day in a park? How about a rainy homeward journey at the back of a bicycle? Each drawing in the exhibition has a story to tell. From finding a model to fitting a large piece of paper on a pub counter the process behind each drawing holds a moment in time as well as memories of myriad encounters and collaborations.
