Outpost Office Installs Drawing Fields No. 6

Outpost Office (Ashley Bigham and Erik Herrmann) has installed Drawing Fields No. 6 at Art Omi, a 120-acre sculpture and architecture park in the Hudson Valley. 

Drawing Fields is a series of large-scale works by Outpost Office exploring the spatial potential of notation. Each installation utilizes GPS-controlled painting robots to mark site-specific, building-size drawings at 1:1 scale. The drawing series employs techniques of measuring, delineating, and marking to investigate architecture as the dynamic performance of spatial instructions.

At Art Omi, Outpost Office will install Drawing Fields No. 6, the largest drawing in the series so far. Visitors will have the opportunity to both observe and inhabit the enormous graphic pattern throughout the drawing process. Drawing Fields No. 6 will critically revisit themes of intimate scale, horizontality, and minute gradation present in early portrayals of the Hudson River Valley landscape.
