In this project, I attempted to attain an altered state while drawing. I set up experiments for myself, becoming both doctor and patient.
The experiments were:
-
Mirror Drawing ~ Drawing with both hands at the same time.
-
Faint Drawing ~Fainting with graphite powder on my head.
-
Blind Drawing ~ Drawing while blindfolded.
-
Prayer Drawing ~ Repetitive writing of the same word or phrase.
-
Self-Hypnosis Drawing ~ Drawing after listening to a self-hypnosis video.
-
Shock Drawing ~ Using a machine that sends different electric frequencies while drawing.
-
Sleep Deprivation Drawing ~ Drawing after not sleeping for a certain period of time.
