Drawings

"The drawings, reveal an unusual pace of observation, they record rapidly changing postures, but despite the speed of the stroke they remain the notes of a sculptor, that is: pictures of bodies in space. With vehement hatching that models the bodies, volumes stand out from the darkness. However, Martin Mayer can also capture space with outlines, the most challenging test for the mastery of drawing as a medium of seeing bodies three-dimensionally." *
