Get Lost: In which ways is it possible to articulate the physical and psychological conditions of being lost, and are the stories we make a way of finding home?
My practice centres on walking. I repeatedly walk the lines drawn on maps, exploring what I find on the route; drawing, painting and writing about the encounters made with the landscape and its people. These walks form the basis for new narratives about transience, familiarity, solitude and memory. I explored the woodlands around Collemacchia, walking random, undefined paths in order to get myself in effect, lost. Through drawing and text I articulated a sense of place which is unknown and considered what the markers, memories and visual vocabulary that we carry with us to project onto new landscapes might be.
