Mapmaker
Fotografia Digitale, Natura, Sacro / Mitologico, Fantasia / Visionario, Paesaggio, Tecnica mista, 25x20x1cm
In this ongoing series a fictional mapmaker goes out into the landscape to take 'readings' from which to create his maps and charts. The photographs are the results of his research, created by flagging or tracing around natural features with a mirror so that the mapmaker's scientific approach is reconciled with natural chance.
The titles describe what he's measured or recorded, from the location of a feature to a sound, a wind or a thought. And most of the time his efforts are successful, but sometimes the elements conspire against him, or he makes a mistake, and the readings don't come out as he would like.
