The task was to draw circles around each other, as close to each other as possible, while trying to avoid that the line/ circle I am drawing should not touch the line within. The consequence of a mistake, (a touch) is that I had to draw a “punishment-circle”, - a small circle “growing out” from the main circle at the spot where a mistake was made.
I used these guidelines as the starting-point for approximately two hundred drawings, a performance and a roof-painting. I investigated the possibilities within the framework, by adjusting the element of chance and the set of rules I would work with. The drawings dealt with time and processes; with each drawing I started a new process I neither could nor would change along the way, even though I were a part of it. Minor motions of my body, - a blink of the eye, a twitch in a finger, would influence the result.
