# Expanded Drawing, Painting, and Space

The concept of **Expanded Drawing, Painting, and Space** refers to the evolution of traditional artistic genres into contemporary, multi-dimensional practices.

## Expanded Drawing
Drawing is no longer limited to linear marks on paper but is expanded to include:
- Large-scale spatial installations.
- Analytical and conceptual descriptions.
- Autonomous and constructive explorations of signs.

## Expanded Painting
Painting is treated as a dynamic field that continuously evolves through various "isms" and schools, where traditional techniques coexist equally with new, synthetic, or non-traditional image languages.

## Expanded Space
The concept of "Space" is expanded from the classical volume of sculpture and objects to include:
- **Action Space:** Areas defined by performance or movement.
- **Thought Space:** Conceptual or mental frameworks.
- **Urban/Living/Working Space:** The integration of art into the built environment and daily life.
