Presentation / Workshop Helen Carnac: Marking Place... Antwerp 2011 (BA3) / Open Campusdag

"What you see displayed here is a visual and written document of our original walks. The objects displayed in this circle are some that were found on the walks, there is a map detailing our journeys, images remembered by the group in words remembered 11 days after the walks were taken and a selection of all our images in a line on the wall, beginning at this end where we began on Sint-Jozefstraat. The students have connected their individual projects to an image on the line of the place that they chose to go back to and reflect on. This project is a formative part of the jewellery students’ studies, whilst it does not explicitly connect with what we may think of as jewellery, it is intended to encourage thinking around ideas such as collecting data, research, mark-making, the identity of a place, individuals and place and how we experience place by being in it, on our feet".
