Vvzela Kook has created many works on urban morphology and historical research since 2015 which gradually developed her method of using croquis sketches to observe the city and record the research process. In this workshop, the artist will share her research process on using drawing to do records in past works, introduce her usual drawing tools and how to use them. Finally, she will observe and perform croquis sketching in Mong Kok with fellow participants to fill the city's "emptiness".
