The article examines collective mark-making in diverse studios, highlighting the role of digital autonomy and critical practices.
This article examines Drawing Across Borders as a situated experiment in collective mark-making across studios in Antwerp, Krakσw, Kentucky, and Durban. Using the open-source platform FRAMED, drawing becomes a shared, performative negotiation shaped by infrastructure, latency, and unequal access. Rather than a prototype, the project presents a fragile, continually reconfigured studio. It argues for process-based practices that foreground digital autonomy, open-source tools, and critical literacy within an increasingly complex post-digital landscape.
