Description

The average human takes 216,262,500 steps in their lifetime. Many of these steps will often be forgotten as the years pass. Maps help retain the memories of the paths we take. While maps are often seen as informational tools, helping you reach a final destination, to me, maps help display where I’ve been rather than where I’m going.

My thesis will focus on the places and locations that have drastically impacted my life. By creating these maps, I will have a lasting memory of many places and locations. Some places will be beautiful destinations where I beg to return, while others may be places where I walked the same path one too many times. Each location in life has helped to shape me into who I am today, for better or for worse. These maps will allow me to document the beauty of this process.
