Hilary Doyle's iPhone drawing project is presented as a series of 36 inkjet prints in editions of 3 + 2 APs each. Comprising drawings made since 2012, this ongoing series of digital drawings brings together a decade's worth of small observations and moments of quiet contemplation, captured spontaneously whilst on the move on trains, planes, car rides or during pauses waiting in queues, or on walks around parks and museums. Modest in subject yet expressive in colour and mark-making, Doyle's works are about seeing and being present in the vivid hues and emotions hidden in each in-between moment of our everyday lives.

Hilary Doyle (b. Worcester, MA) is an artist, teacher and curator whose practice spans painting, drawing, printmaking, and sculpture. Her iPhone drawing series contemplates the daily rituals of everyday life to explore psychology, gender, and emotion. Growing up in the post-industrial city of Worcester, MA, Doyle recalls the dilapidation and unemployment that pervaded her hometown during its socio-economic downturn up until the 1990s. A subsequent move to New York City mirrored her encounters with “zoned-out people caught up in the daily grind, staring with purple rings under their glassy eyes”. Public spaces such as the subway, waiting rooms, and nature became stages upon which Doyle observes quiet, private moments and passers-by. Doyle’s meditation on these shared experiences and the conditions in which people live – however seemingly ordinary or banal – allows for greater emotional introspection on universal experiences we all share.
