During his residency at 100 West, Edmund Eva has been utilising a 1980’s pen plotter - a defunct cousin of the modern printer which he has altered to be able to draw with a variety of tools. Fascinated by the grids and repetition of the American urbanscape, Eva used these as the raw data for his plotter drawings. Becoming increasingly interested in the patterns found locally, both mundane and ornate and in some way reflecting the character, culture and history of Corsicana. The result is a mass of abstracted drawings, of grids, parking lots, floor tiles and architecture.

Edmund Eva is an artist from England and a member of eegb, a duo looking at technology as a tool for artistic expression. This is his first visit to the states with Corsicana providing a unique cross section of American and Texan culture to enrich his practice.
