Marsha Cottrell creates delicate black and white drawings by modifying and re-contextualizing computer keyboard characters in a language of abstraction. A whirlwind of lines and marks that simultaneously come together and disassemble, form intricate spaces that are at once minimalistic and romantic. Cottrell explores the influence of technology on art by manipulating this “virtual rubble” to generate drawings that have been interpreted variously as musical scores, maps and imaginary locales.
