I register myself more in the first category

knowing that I am in quarantine because I have just returned from France, my space is very restrained.

So I limit myself to my building and its courtyard for this project.

However, it was interesting be restrained and have a small space, already defined but it really allows me to rediscover my environment, an exploration of routine through a more microscopic photo investigation

in order to better understand this envirionnement that is mine, I decided to do some mapping

By exploring our personal Habitats and placing them in a global context we were able to make connections that informed our work streams.

This was of particular importance given the fact we were located in different continents across different time zones.
Our shared theme ‘The ground on which we stand’ served as a foundation on which to develop both our collaborative and individual outcomes.

We sought an enhanced understanding of our local and personal Habitats through photographic exploration on foot, at ground level.

Step by step our route was defined by our immediate response to each changing scene- this emotional response was informed by all of our sensory inputs – visual, auditory, olfactory (smell), touch and even taste if we wished- and by our adherence to maintaining 2m distance from others.

In keeping with spirit of psychogeography, as ‘urban wanderers’ we allowed our geographical location to have an impact on our emotion and behaviour and guide our ‘drifting route’.

We chose to explore a sense of scale and our span of experience in looking at
1. 'microcosms' as they emerged - all the time seeking connections with the landscapes of other group members: the ground level view represented personal experience and 'microscopic scrutiny'

2. the aerial views -achieved through review of satellite photography and photographic images removed of context,  were more representative of the need for global connection and a greater overview of the world we live in, despite the restrictions imposed by the current pandemic.

"The ground on which we stand is sacred ground. It is the dust and blood of our ancestors. On these plains the Great White Father is Washington sent his soldiers armed with long knives and rifles to slay the Indian. Many of them sleep on yonder hill where Pahaska - White Chief of the Long Hair [General Custer] - so bravely fought and fell.A few more passing suns will see us here no more, and our dust and bones will mingle with the same prairies. I see as in a vision the dying spark of our council fires, the ashes cold and white. I see no longer the curling smoke rising from our lodge poles. I hear no longer the songs of the women as they prepare the meal.The antelope have gone; the buffalo wallows are empty. Only the wail of the coyote is heard. The white man's medicine is stronger than ours; his iron horse [the railroad] rushes over the buffalo trail. He talks to us through his "whispering spirit" [the telephone].We are like birds with a broken wing. My heart is cold within me. My eyes are growing dim - I am old.Chief Plenty Coups - Crow"
