SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE

Her are my final three maps rolled up an put in glass bottles that I bought.
I chose to put the maps in these bottles as they relate to finding a message in a bottle on a desert island.
On the other side of the map I have written instruction to get to Leeds college of art and design.
The instructions are different for each map as the journey starts at different places



I wrote on each bottle the starting point of the journey
  • the plaza
  • liberty park
  • the train station
I hand drew the type using a "posca" pen which stays on glass


For my map of Leeds I decided to so something different from a bottle and created this box.
I think it is something that would be found on a desert island.
I hand drew the wood effect and cut a whole out of the top of the box to reveal the inside. I also added red felt to the bottom for the map to go on top of.
The box looked empty so made a compass and a photo book.
new students would pick up the box and the bottle at the same time....so if a plaza bottle was picked up a relating box would have to be picked up. This is because inside the box is a photo journey from the starting point to college.
In the box I made below there is a Photographic journey from the Plaza to Leeds college of Art.
