Site : 0.001 {journey . perspective}

Aerial of Marigny-Bywater

Procedure

In an attempt to begin understanding the complexity of this neighborhood you will document a path through the site. The path should attempt to traverse a broad range of landscape/urban moments expressing a narrative of human experience. The path should incorporate the identified, observable phenomena and how it relates to human experience.

The journey will be documented through a series of 30 photographs. Each photograph will represent a keyframe moment of navigation or perception that leads to the next photo. The series of photographs should read as a linear narrative through the environment. It may be necessary to explore several journeys and many iterations to find a suitable series of images.

Articulate

After assembling the 30 prints you will print each on letter size sheets and trim them to 8″x10″. From the series of 30 photographs you will identify 15 that will receive further articulation. Using 11″x17″ vellum sheets you will draw over the perspective images, you will recreate (trace) the photograph beneath, adding embellishment to the areas that help to narrate the intended experience. The larger sheet size allows for annotation and expansion of the composition space. The vellum drawings must be monochromatic, highly crafted and utilize analog media.

All elements are due Monday, February 1st at 1:30pm. The photographs will be displayed as a horizontal composition with the vellum drawings beneath the photographs. Location TBD.
