Rachael Clewlow’s Explorer (2011) “is a colour coded and abstract annotation of her daily routine,” in which her movements on different tracks are represented in different colours. Her map-based work “meticulously documents the ways in which she inhabits the city in which she lives: the routes she takes through it, the times and dates of her travels, and the methods by which (to paraphrase Warhol) she moves from A to B and back again.” Using what she calls “‘statistical diaries’” to log her walks, Clewlow transforms these notebooks into “the source material for Clewlow’s pictorial inventions,” translating “the patterns of her own mobility” into “abstract patterns of form and colour.” Explorer, presented alongside one of her notebooks, exemplifies this process as a vivid, abstract visualization of her daily movement.
