Timeline is an artist commissioned film loop created for The Migration Museum exhibition, Departures. The film uses experimental animation techniques to explore migration that triggered 400 years of emigration from Britain between 1620-2020 and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A single footprint rapidly escalates into patterns of human travel in the form of \u2018abstract lines\u2019 within the natural world to evoke meaning; suggesting epic voyages and connected narratives over long histories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Evolving as unexpected pathways through time. Successive patterns of lines change form through the use of mixed media animation, investigating personal narratives behind life-changing events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using metaphors to emphasize fragility and human endeavour, the multi-layered result suggests a range of migration experiences through historic events across continents, that triggered 400 years of migration from Britain around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
