About "MY MOLESKINE"
OFFERS AN INTIMATE LOOK AT THE INNER WORKINGS OF CREATIVE MINDS QAHWA HAS LAUNCHED AN ARTISTIC PROJECT CALLED MY MOLESKINE. ITS STRAIGHTFORWARD CONCEPT IS SURE TO EVOKE SOME REMARKABLE INSIGHTS INTO THE CREATIVE PROCESS: ARTISTIC MINDS FROM VARIOUS PROFESSIONS WRITERS, PAINTERS, ILLUSTRATORS, GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, FASHION DESIGNERS, MUSICIANS, PHOTOGRAPHERS,ARCHITECTS AND COUNTRIES ARE INVITED TO CHOOSE ONE MODEL FROM THE MOLESKINE COLLECTION IN WHICH TO GIVE EXPRESSION TO THEIR OWN UNIQUE AND INDIVIDUAL PROCESS OF ARTISTIC DEVELOPMENT. WHILE EACH ARTIST IS ENCOURAGED TO FREELY FILL HIS OR HER NOTEBOOK WITH ANY MEDIA AND CONTENT, THE NOTEBOOKS JOURNAL-LIKE FORMAT SHOULD INSPIRE NUMEROUS CONTRIBUTION OF A MORE PERSONAL NATURE. THE ARTISTS ARE THUS ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE A MORE INTIMATE SIDE TO THEIR ARTWORKS AND IN PARTICULAR, THE EVOLUTIONARY COURSES OF THESE ARTWORKS. ABOVE ALL, MY MOLESKINE FOCUSES ON THE CREATIVE PROCESS. IT IS AN EXPLORATION OF WORKS-IN-PROGRESS, RATHER THAN A CONCLUSIVE PRESENTATION OF FINAL ARTWORKS. A JOURNEY THROUGH THE INVENTIVE TRAJECTORY, THIS EXHIBITION IS A DISCOVERY OF HOW PROJECTS EVOLVE AND WHAT INSPIRES AN ARTIST TO CHOOSE CERTAIN DIRECTIONS WHILE ABANDONING OTHERS.
