this project was a really simple project. just ruin a map, and create it into something that is significant. therefore the first step was to get a map, any map. i got a SCAD map, i painted on it, glued receipts on it, glued over it, inked it, drew on it. then i burned it. when i did this, i had lots of just black ash left, and some whole bits of map left over.

i then looked at the parts i had left and i thought what can i do with this to attach it to my emotional value?

so i pieced them together to look like the British Isles and the countries surrounding great Britain. I made the UK bigger so it was the focal point, this is because its my home country and i miss home. as you can se below the process and order which i went in. this is the map in whole before it got burned
