You could say ‘to feel is to think and to think is to feel’ and to draw is to register these creative phenomena and manifest their relations. The impulse to inscribe feeling and thinking through the immediate and authentic form of drawing is universal.  Mejia kicks off its 2024 program with an exhibition celebrating contemporary drawing practices coming out of RMIT’s School of Art in recent years. Current Drawing department staff members Ruth O’Leary and Benjamin Sheppard have assembled their work along with RMIT alumni and three prize winning 2023 graduates—a humble local survey of recent drawing practice in the continuum of people making marks that communicate feelings and embody thought.
