Projections is a series of sketches/drawings/paintings which are impressions of the academic talks I attended. As the name suggests, they are attempts to project my experiences of the talks onto a two-dimensional paper. They are inspired by the entirety of the presentation, including the content of the talks, the atmosphere in the room, the questions and comments from the audience, and the food served during the breaks.
I may occasionally tweet the sketches with a hashtag #kbprojections.
When I am not attending conferences for long periods of time, I make physics-inspired pieces. These Sublimations can be found on the bottom of the page .
Select projections can be bought as prints on Society6.com: https://society6.com/kacabradonjic .
