“…every place holds within it memories of previous arrivals and departures, as well as expectations of how one may reach it, or reach other places from it. Thus do places enfold the passage of time: they are neither of the past, present or future but all three rolled into one. Endlessly generated through the comings and goings of their inhabitants, they figure not as locations in space but as specific vortices in a current of movement, of innumerable journeys actually made.”

Wayfinding exploration — Teachers were asked to: 1) draw their classrooms
2) trace the path on a day when they ‘lost’ their way 3) create a way to bring the thing that sustains them into the space where they became lost. |
This activity demonstrates:
1) Wayfinding through Everyday Practice: Being is the practice 2) Wayfinding through Memory Marking 3) Wayfinding through Belief Systems Using Self-Publishing |
We investigated Wayfinding through the lens of these artists: J Morgan Puett, Chiharu Shiota, and Lisa Anne Auerbach.
