"Retrace"

Woodblock Prints on Paper

Installations

This project consists of locational elements. Using a literal map of San Francisco, I took three sections of the city that were significant to me and gridded and replicated the blocks and streets. The color scheme chosen mimic some hues and tones present in the existing map I used as a guide. The first iteration was an attempt at scale and creating an immersive map experience. The viewer is allowed to walk in it and allow the gridded design to take over their perception. The second iteration on the ground replicates the actual movements and flow of what an unfolded map may look like. The topographical qualities were intentional to be stronger at the distinct folds and bends of the map.
