"I work in different disciplinaries, photography and book arts are part of work I'm making at the moment. The transitions of daily life in the public space and the private space are part of the context of my work. This particular work I'm showing in Dream Space is about the street were I lived in for twenty years of my life. All the neighbours have connections with each other and me.
Of every neighbour I took a picture and combined it with a recent memory or a memory from my childhood."

Elizabeth Miller
Map-making aids our understanding of the environment in which we live. The concentric patterns of contours on landscape maps echo the patterns and shapes that occur constantly in the natural world, on the rings of a tree, or the ripples in water, for example. 'Sound Map' is an investigation into how the repetitive patterns in music, when draw up in the form of graphic score, produce patterns of a strikingly similar form, to the patterns found in nature.
