Untitled (channels) forms part of Will Handley’s ongoing Drawing Actions Project, a return to drawing following a decade of conceptually driven and collaborative practice. Developed through a series of interventions within Espaços sem títulos throughout Porto, the work approaches drawing as an action: a material and spatial process that precedes, or resists, the demand for conceptual resolution. Rather than illustrating a predetermined idea, the drawings emerge through an immediate negotiation between gesture, surface and site.

The theme of the channel operates as an opening—a passage through, between, or beyond the surface. These forms remain indeterminate, suggesting spaces of transmission, transition and potential without fixing their meaning. In this sense, Untitled (channels) considers drawing less as representation than as a means of making space: a provisional act through which something not yet articulated can become perceptible.
