Measuring Leaves, Gathering Trees is an attempt to capture 1m² of nature, to transport that piece of nature to another space, and the eventual realisation that the experience of a place can never be fully captured.
Through different methods, both digital and physical, we tried to distill the essential elements of a piece of the Meinerswijk nature area in Arnhem, the Netherlands, which will soon dissappear due to housing projects in the area.
Techniques utilized:
Texture map of 3D scanned tree, rendered on a 2D plane and printed on translucent ripstop fabric.
3D model wireframes of scanned assets, displayed on an Ipad with costum metal frame.
Fieldrecordings playing on costum MP3 device.
Collected photographs, displayed on an Arduino LCD screen.
Wooden 1m² grid, 10x10cm squares, neon rope, engraved with woodburned poem (Gathering Leaves by Robert Frost)
Custom yardstick, 1m, with 10cm intervals (red & white)
Diffuser with homemade aroma, derived from leaves found on-site.
Collection of objects found in Meinerswijk (leaves, twigs, rocks, trash, moss, misc.)
