‘Being challenged in life is inevitable, but being defeated is optional…’ Henry Fraser – The Little Big Things The next step on from the map of possibilities is the map of me. You will need maps which you can tear and cut up, these can be from places you have lived/ live, have visited and aspire to visit. Step one is to create your reconstructed map, refer to the examples, cut away landmass leaving the skeletal structure of roads. You can re-imagine your past showing both physical and metaphorical journeys you have made. You can weave your own portrait into this and collage other significant imagery and text. A final step of your map of me is to add new paths, these can be stitched in, collaged or drawn. Its important to focus on hope as well as address challenges.
Being creative keeps you well
