S.B.: I Am Drawing You at Politics and Prose

Politics and Prose Bookstore · Washington, DC · Ticketed · ★ 4.8 (1901)

A bookstore talk built around one artist's new book, not a generic reading.

Just ten days after she gave birth, S.B. began drawing her son as he nursed, napped, and awoke to the world. In more than two hundred spontaneous, sensitive, and occasionally comical line drawings, we watch this new human sleeping, crawling, and trying out possible transitional objects. In an engaging introductory essay, S.B. describes—with light doses of psychoanalytic theory, drawing pedagogy, and art history—what her practice meant to her and what it might mean to others.
