Memory proposal
9/21/2020
Macau is the place where I grew up. I have been living here for 20 years. Since Macau is a very small city, instead of taking the train or driving a car, usually I prefer walking to get to places. In this project, I plan to use the form of lines to present/record the walking routines I have in Macau using my memory to do so.
My walking routines in Macau:
- Home – my work place
- Home – my grandmother home
- Home – my favorite restaurant
- Pet shop that I used to go – Home
- Home – supermarket
- Supermarket – home
My hope in this project is to explore the relationship between my memory and my city. See if I am that familiar with my city, or if I would forget some parts of it. The most exciting part of the project is that I have no idea what the final work would look like, and they would be abstract drawings(using pencils 2B, 4B, 6B), and they would be a drawing or 5 drawings of lines (I am still thinking about it)
This is the article I watch to see how people draw from memory:
