So I decided to combine a line art that I had in my sketchbook when we started this brief with the portrait painting of the sister of Joseph Wright. Since Silk Mill has the biggest collection of J. Wright paintings I though it would be representative for the museum as well as a great idea of combining the old with the new, which is what "The Museum of Making" project is promoting.
I also added some line art on top of the painting to encourage the viewer to not take drawing so seriously. I thought about what feelings the visitor might experience when he is asked to draw and most people get scared of the idea. So I imagined a leaflet that will tell a different story: that drawing is fun.

On the back of the leaflet I am going to use a map to guide the visitor to get to the museum.
The map will also incorporate lines which are supposed to make it easier for the visitor to find the way around to the museum.

Museum of Making
Probably the most important feature as "elements of past" incorporated in this project is the largest collection of paintings which Silk Mill has displayed by Joseph Wright. For that reason I will choose one of J. Wright portraits (he is specialised in portrait and landscape) as theme in my leaflet.

Since the "Museum of Making" at Derby Silk Mill is such a big project expanding on a period of 5 years I have researched it and I've tried to come up with an idea which will incorporate and fit in with the curators.
The Museum of Making is supposed to combine elements of the past, volunteers creative ideas and future innovations.

I am designing a leaflet which will try to incorporate Finding lines brief with "The Museum of Making" objectives.

"Over the course of the codesign, thousands of volunteer hours were contributed. In addition to growing a resilient community, exchanging skills and building networks, those taking part improved their sense of wellbeing. During the project, representatives of the University of Derby measured cortisol levels amongst volunteers before and after codesign and comaking. The results showed significant boost in peoples’ immune system afterwards, leading to the conclusion that participation in creative and social activities is stimulating and can provide health benefits."

"On the site of the world’s first factory, Derby Museums is transforming the historic Silk Mill Museum as a Museum of Making, by involving members of the community to reinstate the intrinsic local history and innovation once discovered in the rich foundations of the building. The Silk Mill Museum has re-emerged as a collaborative space curated and designed by the community in a radically new approach to re-imagining a museum."

As we continued thinking about this brief we came up with the idea of encouraging the visitors to draw their own feeling using simple lines.

When we first started thinking about this brief, at Silk Mill, we came up with the idea of multiple transparent layered drawings. We found some transparent plastic cups which we draw on. Each of us had a different drawing but when we put the cups together it looked like 1 single drawing. Because we had used cups we could also rotate them giving the image infinite posibilities

"It is a state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting feelings, thoughts and bodily sensations."
Rather a meditation state through which people eliberate themselves of worries, negative thoughts, plans or ideals and achieve a calm state of mind. It can be also translated as a moment in which the individual is in a state of acceptance of himself in that specific present moment.

Finding lines project is supposed to demonstrate that drawing is a mindful activity that has wellbeing benefits. "Through the process of creating a taxonomy of lines and the playful drawing prompts, we will be presenting a sequence of drawings that will interest and inspire visitors to make their own marks confidently."
