We warmly invite you to join us for an exclusive opportunity to gain insights directly from the artist himself regarding his innovative exhibition. Discover the intricacies of Samocha's unique drawing technique that has given birth to captivating 3D artworks. During this upcoming talk, the artist will also offer a performative demonstration, allowing attendees to delve deeper into his creative process and artistic innovation.

Multi-disciplinary artist Ram Samocha revisited his past live drawings during the pandemic. These drawings, created with vibrant energy in front of live audiences, were made using a variety of mediums. Samocha repurposed them using metalpoint, a traditional drawing technique that requires great skill. However, he added a unique twist by using a drill on stone paper, effectively transforming the two-dimensional drawings into three-dimensional objects. By incorporating mixed media, he achieved unexpected combinations, gradually constructing the images over several months. This shift from a primal act of drawing to a layered painting resulted in rich and captivating artwork.
