Archie Fooks - Smith
Graphite Drawings

Archie Fooks - Smith is a UK based artist working predominantly in drawing as well as other mixed media. He completed his BA at the Slade School of Fine Art in 2021.



Many of the drawings in this series feature a heavy use of graphite; the result of a preliminary drawing being rubbed out and shaded in so as to create a negative of the original image. By using this process, the artist creates a sense of depth in which the darkness operates as an empty space, like a room without lighting or the shapes that emerge at the beginning of a dream.
