Original drawing by Dirk De Vos, 1992, mechanically erased by Various Artists for AllhiheyAll (i).

• (i) AllhiheyAll is a conceptual drawing method initiated by Various Artists and carried out by ‘others’. In AllhiheyAll Various Artists aims to exploit an unconscious force of a public. Via multiple ways VA asks people to carry, ride or drive around with envelopes, boxes or canisters that contain a variety of drawing-mechanisms and paper sheets. Every mechanism has its own timetable, so that after a certain span of time (this varies between 1 day to 1 year, depending on the specific needs of the drawing) the device can be recalled. After the recollection, the application is being dismantled and the drawing - once revealed - is being scanned, numbered and signed. Finally the drawing is returned to the person who executed the work.
