Jessica Drenk’s mesmerizing sculptures from her ongoing series, Implements, are a sight to behold. These undulating and organic forms are created from thousands of drawing utensils, specifically pencils. Drenk, fascinated by the aesthetics and behavior of mass-produced objects, chose pencils for their stackable shape and the unique opportunity they provided for creating art that draws on itself during the making process.

Implements delves into the relationship between interior and exterior, showcasing the objects within each sculpture while also revealing the lengths of graphite and bare wood on the outside. The intricate details and craftsmanship in each piece are truly remarkable.

One of the challenges Drenk faces when working with pencils is the difficulty of gluing pre-painted, non-porous surfaces together. In response to this, she ordered 30,000 unpainted pencils to create larger sculptures that could be glued into more dynamic shapes. This innovative approach has allowed her to push the boundaries of what is possible with this medium.

The series has evolved over time, inspiring other sculptures like “Speleothem” and “Formation,” where pencils come together to form larger, more dynamic structures. Drenk notes that even the hexagon shape found in the pieces is reminiscent of patterns seen in nature, from beehives to columnar basalt rocks.

Currently, Drenk is exploring a new geology-inspired series called Aggregate, using junk mail as a medium, along with creating wall sculptures from books. Her work continues to push the boundaries of traditional sculpture and challenges viewers to see everyday objects in a new light.
