Abstrakt: AbstractThis article focuses on a collaborative drawing project carried out between two undergraduate drawing courses, one in I·stanbul and the other in Worcester, during the autumn 2015 semester. Duos – teams of two working remotely – took turns to work on the same drawing in correspondence for three months, sharing the changing images online with one another. The project introduced a collaborative method of learning based on drawing, initiated cultural exchange and cooperation. The role of drawing in the project was critical due to the direct but gradual nature of transmitting meaning onto paper. Outcomes of this project consisted of a flexible and playful creation process for students making use of the element of chance. They sought alternative ways to finalize a drawing and experienced the benefits of artistic co-production. The project has the capacity to inspire artists, instructors and others interested in creative partnership in different disciplines and can be of value as an educational model.
