Type of Workshop: Process and Project

 

Humans have making maps for thousands of years: it is an urge some of us can't resist. Using collage, illustration, journaling, paint, paper and other mixed media, we will create "maps" of our life experience, based on historical models. These maps of the imagination can record our journeys of the past, future, backyards, hopes, dreams, and mythological places. We will make varied maps and an Atlas case to contain them, and discuss the historical and contemporary treatments of maps and mapmaking.
