I happened to stumble upon a box of free till roll receipt paper by chance. It made my entire week as I had been furiously bidding on boxes of the stuff on ebay but to no avail. Recently I have noticed how much my work revolves around a continuous line, be it a physically drawn line or a metaphorical one that follows a path or journey. I wanted to explore this through the naturally long and thin nature of till roll paper, and now I have the rolls I have begun to experiment with its uses. I have used it as an additional line to my photojoiner; and then tracing lines of interest from the photographs across the paper. I have found that doing this has created the impression of contour lines on an illustrated map, so I now have the potential to expand on this piece and develop the lines following the shape of the original joiner. I have also been using this paper to collect thoughts. I have been finding it difficult to condense all of my thoughts and ideas into one place, so whenever I have felt lost I have been writing on the long paper.
