Circle
Posted by Tom John Rose on 15 July 2011 | Views: 1221 | 0 Comments
Circle is a project I done based on the conceptual works of Richard Long and Francis Alys. On an Ordinance Survey map of Ipswich, a drew around a dinner plate at random. Then, as if it were a clock-face, I marked around the circle 12 marks, or hours. Starting at 7am, I cycled to the 7am marker on the circle and photographed what was around me, looking for areas of decay and mans destruction of nature. Then, at 8am, I cycled to the next marker on the circle, continuing around the clock until it was 6pm and I had gathered 12 photographs documenting a circle of decay.
(The grid below is read from top left to bottom right, the project is intended to be hung in a circle).
