Scheiner and Sons was an installation that explored the possibilities that arise during the drawing process, when confronted with physical, visual and material constraints. The drawing process was here seen as an universal language and an ubiquitous tool whose understanding can go beyond borders, as it is a common discipline to several artistic, technical, symbolic or objective activities.
By using a drawing mechanism named Pantograph, invented by Christoph Scheiner in 1603 to proportionally and simultaneously transfer and resize a drawing, our intention was to search for the graphic results of the juxtaposition of small matrices (obstacles) over preexistent printed graphic shapes (connections).
