This was a self- directed weekend project that we were set and was about exploring text, signs and symbols around us. These factors could have been noticed on a journey or in relation to a person or a significant object. I decided to explore the texts, signs and symbols that I noticed on a journey through manchester. I noted down how I recognised certain buildings and how I remembered a facts about them- things such as where the building was situated. I also noted down all the signs and symbols that I came across through this jouney.
I photographed places and locations that significant to me and then edited them in photoshop, inserting text that explained where and what I felt during the journey through manchester.
These are a few examples of the compositions that I put together. I made around thirty compositions and then put my favourites together to make a tapestry which symbolises my journey.
