for site project, me and my friend Nana collaborated. In this project, each student was given a place from South London. My place was Canal Walk in Peckham. There was the Grand Surrey Canal in the past, but now there is just a cycling road. Nana's place was Brixton City Farm, but animals coming only when a festival happen. Thus, our theme is 'finding' so we got an idea of pattern, which means the action of repeating and finding. Also we have got embroidering, which has a same meaning as well. And we also want to show a kind of utopia on this tapestry. it means finding something, but already got a utopia. Therefore, we chose colourful threads to express happiness :)
we have done the research, drawing, design, screen printing, and sewing for this tapestry^0^♪

| In the exhibition, Parallel Cites |
 |
this is the first idea of a pattern. we drew each drawings
and did layout with photoshop. |
 |
after group tutorial, we changed the pattern design.
we should tell the meaning of finding from our drawing. |
 |
| we planned how to embroider on the pattern |
 |
| thinking about the colours |
 |
| drawing a path with orange thread |
 |
| making fringe like a canal flowing |
 |
canal running, a horse drawing a ship,
a traveler walking |
 |
grass, canal and a milestone,
a trace of a bicycle |
