Cell Gallery : Interior Lines works by Leena Raudvee Part of the Contact Photography Festival Reception May 4, 2–4:30pm
“Interior Lines” is a series of close-up photographs of charcoal and conté drawings created by Leena Raudvee during a residency at the Arcadia Art Gallery in 2023. These were drawn responses to Raudvee’s daily struggle to get in and out of a chair, difficult because of a degenerative muscle disease. Each line was a witness to the emotional and physical effort to perform this simple gesture. Raudvee used the camera to reveal textures and energies that emerged from the accumulation of drawn lines. These photographs hold stories of the precariousness of negotiating im/mobility through disability and aging.
