Interactivity is an important element of Ilic’s work. On view is Ilic’s large 4 x 14’ sculptural drawing device made of rubber from ceiling to floor, and incised throughout with thousands of red graphite pencils. The viewer is invited to manipulate the undulating pencil device and contribute to a drawing on the surrounding walls, thereby directly experiencing the artwork along with the art-making process.
