In the same way the grid could be regarded as the structure of a page, the foundations on which to layout contents ( texts and images we read), my idea is to search a similar structure analysing places. To document and to map their surfaces, to reveal their hidden anatomy. sometime kept invisible.
The project consists of highlighting the hidden grids of the space where the BA Graphic students spend their time in school.
Every room has 4 walls, and a wall is the bearing element of the building, in the same way the grid is for a 2d document. I’m going to shoot every wall and to map every room with 4 grids each.
This is a selection of places to map: the 1st, 2nd and 3rd year studio, the photo studio,letterpress, screen printing, etching, context and typo studio, the cyber cafee and the 2 floors of the computer room. Every place will have its title and a little plan, his 4 pics and traced over it (on tracing paper placed on top of the picture) the grids.
