Artist statement

A building photograph includes visual noise, which obscures a critical appreciation of architectural form. A formal analysis drawing clarifies an understanding of architecture at a fundamental level. These minimalist contour drawings emphasize a grammar of line weight, which reliably represents three-dimensional space and the geometry of form. --Eric Inglert (talk) 20:27, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
