Hygrothermograph Drawings are a limited edition of works on paper by James Chrzan. Created for the exhibition Artists' Tools, each site-specific drawing is produced by a hygrothermograph. The machine records changes in the temperature and humidity inside the gallery in blue and red ink on unique paper, and the result is notarized by Wen-You Cai. The work offers a different perspective in which to see the everyday, in which major events, from the opening day to the COVID-19 pandemic, are observed through data.
