Landscape configurations.



Landscape configurations tone texture and colour.

7 days / 7 landscapes / 7 mile radius

I have chosen to document the landscape surrounding the Calder and Spen Valley Greenway.
It is a sustainable transport route, set up and managed by Sustrans; a charitable organisation that builds cycle routes and works with communities.

I am using the formal elements of visual recording, as a ‘road map’ to further my journey through the landscape.

I found some index cards that join neatly to make a strip. I began by using line to record the landscape in panoramic. Then tone, texture and colour.

The panoramic form lends itself to length (distance from A to B) as an archive of the journey that was taken, whilst cycling to my observational points.

Paper modelling landscape.

How do the different elements of the landscape join and connect?
