The One Year Drawing Project: May 2005 – October 2007 documents a collaborative drawing exchange between four Sri Lankan artists—Muhanned Cader, Thamotharampillai Shanaathanam, Chandraguptha Thenuwara, and Jagath Weerasinghe—set against the turmoil of the Sri Lankan civil war. Over 29 months, the artists exchanged drawings in a sequence originally intended to last a year, using the act of drawing as a form of dialogue and resistance. Featuring texts by the artists and Mariah Lookman, and accompanied by a timeline of contemporaneous events, this book reflects on the role of art in times of conflict and the shifting nature of time and communication under duress.
