P018 → Lucky Map (2)
My map conveys the idea of ‘luck’ and the message that ‘exploring the world is something that brings good fortune’. When thinking about ‘exploration’, I was reminded of the scroll maps that adventurers use, like the one shown in the picture. I have scheduled a digital printing session and chose a lightweight, translucent fabric because I believe that something lighthearted should be paired with a light and airy material, so it doesn't feel heavy or burdensome.
Later, I wrapped several layers of thick cardboard with an aluminum foil tube and then spray-painted it gold to create the map's scroll. I also used gold thread to seal the edges of the map fabric. I chose gold because it symbolizes "preciousness and brilliance," representing this treasure-filled map.
