Penwald Drawings are a series of bilateral drawings

in which Tony Orrico explores the use of his body

as a tool of measurement to inscribe geometries

through movement and course.

The master of each drawing is a conceptual score

of Orrico's efficacious techniques, imposed variables,

and specified durations and/or objectives.

He explores the limitation of (or the spontaneous

navigation within) the sphere of his outstretched arms,

considering themes of repetition, locomotion, refraction,

and eventual exhaustion.

He performs his ideas live as a shared process that yields

a unique impression or print of the original concept.
