Astrid Milne Route E68 - day by boring day

Work by Astrid Milne

My work is an observation of my journey to school and the repetitious habits of the commuter community. By ranging across techniques, materials and focal point I explore the personal and geographic elements of the trip. The beauty of the trip inspired me as well as the distant but familiar people I have often shared a seat with over the past six years. The 22 panels document the 22 minutes of my bus trip and emphasise the highlights that occur on a bus ride that may at first seem mundane.

Influencing artists: Joseph Cornell, Jim Dine, Lucian Freud, The Contextual Villains, Annette Messager, Marlene Dumas
