Abstract
Zugunruhe is a German word for migratory restlessness used in ornithology that I found applicable to the ideas I am investigating through printmaking and textile-based techniques. In my art I am exploring landscapes both physical and mental, exterior and interior. I am looking at the landscape through the lens of memory. Throughout this text, I discuss how different methods of traveling through a landscape influence our perceptions of it, the ways interior landscapes can shift our focus to memories, the comfort gained from those memories, and the way historical shifts in the views of wilderness have brought us to the understanding of the world that we have today. All of these ideas contributed to the work I created for my thesis exhibition.
