5. Images

…Where
did
she
go?
Why
did
she
lose
her
ribbon?
Why
was
it
placed
so
perfectly
for
me
to
find?
It
was
like
finding
a
piece
of
myself
on
the
footpath.
I
stopped
suddenly
because
it
reminded
me
of
so
many
things.
The
hundreds
of
bows
Ked
in
my
hair.
Where
did
they
all
go?

18. MeKssage
by
Mademoiselle
Maurice
Exploring
the
use
of
ribbons
in
art.
The
placement
of
the
ribbon
defines
its
purpose.
Different
ribbons
signify
different
things.

19. Me#isage
is
a
street
project
by
French
arKst
Mademoiselle
Maurice.
Dressing
ciKes
and
making
street
art
with
ribbons.
In
this
context
they
serve
as
a
decoraKve
contrast
to
the
grey
street
exterior.

20. Are
ribbons
more
significant
dependent
on
their
placement?
Do
they
change
the
meaning
of
an
object?

21. Experiment:
tying
ribbons
around
different
objects.
What
does
it
mean
now?
What
did
it
mean
before?

22. Is
this
sKll
rubbish?

23. Is
this
a
present
or
a
piece
of
fruit?

24.
Ribbons
are
just
lines.
When
does
a
line
become
a
ribbon?
Ribbons
are
just
lines
Ked
in
bows.
A
ribbon
becomes
a
bow
when
it
is
Ked.
A
bow
becomes
a
ribbon
when
it
is
unKed.
It’s
the
INTENTION
that
defines
what
is
ulKmately
the
same
thing….but
we
call
it
something
else.

25. Lines
that
tell
us
where
we
are.

26.
What
do
different
lines
mean?
Data
collecKon
from
the
random
locaKon
#2:

27. Lines
that
tell
us
who.

28. Lines
that
lead.

29. Lines
that
swirl
for
no
good
reason.

30. Lines
that
crack
and
show
the
Kme.

31. Lines
that
contain
and
communicate.

32. Lines
that
support.

33. Lines
that
scramble.

34. Lines
that
grow.

35. Lines
that
show
the
way.

36. Lines
that
divide
the
sky.

37. Lines
in
nature.

38.
Lines
that
keep
things
in.

39. Lines
that
keep
things
out.

40. Lines
that
are
wriOen.

41. When
do
lines
cease
to
be
lines?
When
do
they
become
something
else?
They
are
sKll
lines.
Is
a
ribbon
a
ribbon
or
is
a
ribbon
a
line?
Or
both?

42. Pencil
Drawing:
Jennah
Porter
ExperimenKng
with
lines.
Do
we
see
ribbons
or
lines?
It’s
a
maOer
of
percepKon.

43. Ink
drawing:
Jennah
Porter
Are
these
lines
or
bows?
Are
objects
defined
only
by
the
names
we
give
them?
“
A
rose
by
any
other
name
would
smell
as
sweet:”
Shakespeare.

44. The
rock
is
pink
because
we
say
it
is.
Rocks
don’t
move
but
this
one
does.

45.
Are
objects
limited
by
our
percepKon
and
the
names
we
give
them
or
are
they
capable
of
defying
that?
