What one sees in A rather be A – line is an ensemble of works guided by the playfulness and lightness of drawing, and an in-situ installation built with the intention of providing a subtle landscape where the works could breath, live, and rest. A rather be A – line highlights a broad conception of drawing gathering sculpture, drawing and painting while registering a specific group of artists whose different practices use materials such as nylon, metal, paper maché, brass, mirrors, paint, fabric, drawings, and ceramic. Dismissing all sense of linearity, and as a statement of pure belonging, A rather be A – line apprehends this practice as a process, recognizing both the established and supposed potential of this art form, as well as those that can still be revealed through experimentation and curiosity.
