- Blackboard

Memory is seen here not as an indelible imprint, but as being permanently written over.

The blackboard still shows the markings of erased chalk, by moving the screen over it quotations and fragments of quotations appear but once they are passed over then they are not in the same position if you go back to it.

This work has ideas that strongly relate to my own concepts behind my work, blackboard is exploring the idea of memory being overwritten, one of the ideas i want to explore in my work is the idea of mapping over the dark places, the scary places on the map simply labeled 'here be dragons'.
