Ex1.2 Personal experience – outcome

I chose to use a stick as a representation of measurement of the journey. It reflects the colour banded way posts of the valley walk, a totemic staff.

The wrappings represent stages of the journey. Even surburban houses, historic Tudor buildings, a little touch of industrial building and then the slow wilding of the route up the valley, branching off to the waterfall wildness. I attached and wrapped wire for the return journey through the woods. The twig and wire are the same shape as the route on the os map.

I experimented slightly with using dyed ripped squares of cotton voile to represent the ruggedness of the valley. My moody lifted as I got higher from the valley floor so the fabric is lighter. The squares are not even like a map but wild and untamed.

Does it answer what is being asked of you? how can you develop your ideas ? What are you trying to achieve in your samples/ art ? have you achieved it? if not why? how can you revisit the work to improve.
