Jump into Sutton | Issue 3
Back at college, we organised the information we had collected and began developing our research using different media. Initially, we used the computer to experiment with designs inspired by the London Underground map. Here is Hayley White’s version. Below is our class display in mixed media which attempted to bring different aspects from all involved. It was funny to see that our route resembled a giant sock with a string on top. We initially used a grid method to scale up our drawings for the larger display in the classroom but then decided to incorporate the grid form into the artwork as a way to balance different colours.
Mapping the walk This map was in part inspired by the Mappa Mundi which is a map from medieval ages. The maps from this time were not entirely accurate and incorporated more symbolic elements to express beliefs and imaginary ideas.
Our maps included a few different flavours of ice cream which we all wished we could have enjoyed on the walk, but most of the other information is fairly accurate.
