Drawing Theatre Student Exhibition 2019
Before getting lost in the magical World of Drawing Theatre, figure drawing should be taught
as in a key to open the door of this charming experience. Students who are currently taking
figure drawing course have been trained beforehand on creating a description of the human
naked body by analyzing the characteristics proportions of separate human parts from a live,
stable actor.
Theoretically explaining figure drawing, the curriculum consists of three main parts. First part
would be the introduction which aims to train/prepare artists how they could successfully transform
an emotion in motion presented by an actor, into a stable form by using ink, pen, chalk, and pencils.
In addition to these mediums, technological arts are also introduced by using stop motion as a
filmmaking technique. Right after the first step of entering the real- time figure drawing experience,
the composition, which is collaboratively done by the actors and painters, starts. An actor is crowned
by the mission of transforming the beauty, rhythm, elegance, and balance of nature delightfully to
future artists brushes and audiences hearts.
Actor uses Stanislawski and Eric Morriss method on stage for creating a partially improvised
experience. The third part is built up with the theoretical side to this experience, methods and the history
of acting is taught such as Eric Morris, Stanislawski, Grotowski, Meyerhold. These three branches dance
together feeding, growing and completing each other harmoniously, presenting an exquisite experience
which is named by Drawing Theatre.
