my blind landscape

Descriptor : Victor MIRAMAND – EAP Bordeaux

Drawers : 4 ENITA students : Rémi, Patrick, Mathieu, Denis + 1 EAP student: Estelle

The description

The principle of the description is based on a first look of the great landscape structures specially relief and vegtal structure. Then I look at soil’s occupation and human establishement. This simple method permit to have a complete glance about every landscape’s forms.

The objective is to have perception of th large territory until details of landscape composition.

The results

The results are relatively homogenous per school except some poblems of lateralisation. ENITA students are very sensible to detail. So their drawing are faithful with my description. The EAP’s drawing seems more liberated. In fact, I think for ENITA students, every words I said correspond to drawing objects spacialy organised, even though my words are relatively reinterpreted in a global scene for EAP student. The drawers appreciated that the descripion was methodic point after point. They would begin by the line at the horizon, with the mountains in the background and not by the valleys in firstground. It was difficult to evaluate the distance and so to understand the size of the different details to draw (hills, castle..). The expression "mamelon" to designate the little hill surprised some of the drawers. In the same idea he designated a hedge of trees by "poplars"alignment to give and idea of the shape, it was an image to help to imagine and not to draw the trees with details: it is a method using "symbol". In this way, it is easier to apropriate the landsape to draw...
