‘Mapping the building’ – I have done a bit of research into mapping – google throws up images of all kind of ‘maps’ – maps of the internet are particularly interesting – tracing information connections – beautiful and intruiging.
Maps – combine intention, function and beauty.
But there are so many ways in which I could map this building without drawing ‘a map’ – with sound, words, footsteps, colour, string, numbers. So I have been looking at how artists use mapping – walking, recording, drawing, performance.
I am struck by the sounds, smellls and textures of the building and have begun to make tracings of the building – wax, crayon and graphite on cotton. – how will this idea develop?
Its interesting to see new meanings in everyday objects when they are removed from thier context.
