Map Project

I took an abstract approach when doing my map project.  I had originally envisioned silhouetting the images of a caravan over a map of caravan routes, but instead realize what interesting results I could get by only allowing the map to come through within the silhouette. There is movement from right to left in the piece, as I free-handed the images of camel shadows against a sand dune as opposed to actual camel figures, and the country lines within the map lend a blocky, thrown-off grid effect to the image.
