About
Arriving in Tallinn, Estonia to undertake a visual arts residency I was inspired to explore the landscape. I began by creating a physical performance piece by walking across destinations in the geography for 18 days, 4 hours duration each day.
The way in which people navigate the physical landscape has been greatly impacted by new technology which exposes one of the velocities of change in our society. Printed maps have diminishing to be replaced by screen-based maps held on portable devices. Maps are powerful tools of communication which show a point of view or inspire a journey in a particular environment. ‘The Space Between Us’ is a mapping of the Tallinn landscape using new media.
The triangle presents three points on a landscape, where we have been, where we are now, and where we will go in the future. It exposes the concept of real and imagined distance between locations.
In Tallinn, Estonia I felt separated from loved ones by geographical distance. Digital media such as skype, email, facebook make people feel like they are closer through creating the illusion of closeness though fast velocity of sharing experiences. It enables us to connect regardless of our physical locations. However it does not replace human interaction and intimacy.
