Mud Map

In 2024, I regularly walked and cycled along the Forth and Clyde canal near where I lived in Glasgow. I became interested in the passage of time of walking, replicating the towpath and waterway of the canal. I invited participants to make walks with me, and we explored the textures of the environment through drawing. I encouraged us to consider sounds, smells, light, movement and the ‘mundane’ textures around us. Through this experience, I developed a close relationship with the environment and developed the drawings I made into an installation reflecting my sensory experience of the canal.
