Title: A New Continental Drift
Medium: Found objects: Scrabble-game pieces on metal (cast iron) mesh.
Size: 63(H) x 41(L) x 15(W) cm approximately
Rationale:
Observing numerous cultural divisions, I remapped the world if it were to drift apart based on religions. I used the pieces from the game ‘Scrabble’ as they effectively represented compartments. To make a layout, I digitally colour-coded the religions and rearranged the world map, matching their colours, to form new shapes of the landmasses. I used spray paints to create the look of a parchment and placed the scrabble pieces on a metal mesh to indicate roots that still connect us.
