AbstractDrawing may be categorized as secondary when being compared to other art forms such as painting and sculpture. Thus, I have been taking up drawing as a deliberate art activity. Moreover, I have been drawing ordinary and personal artefacts. After years of showcasing my artworks in various physical space, I have explored the virtual cosmos. In this paper, I aim to show drawing as an independent and progressive medium in its own right. I will suggest that drawing, for successive generations, is never-ending among professional practitioners. In fact, drawing has been taken as strategic means and innovative approach, among women practitioners in particular, to refute its position that is subordinate and marginal. I will suggest that creative manifestations through drawing ordinary and personal artefacts are traces of private and social memories and desires. Partial or incomplete the artefacts may be, they are objects one has in his/her own space and that make up the story of a being within specific social contexts. I am to suggest that the artefacts, parts of ethnology, form an undoubted and inexhaustible treasure-hoard of concept. I will further suggest that Internet know-hows have prompted promising possibilities and realizations within cyber space; virtual cosmos has acted as a suggestive alternative space in the present-day art practice. In short, taking drawing on board, drawing ordinary artefacts and setting within virtual configurations, I explore to practice the sexual difference, all in all, to be immune to the hierarchical orders of culture.
