My work( map): THE WAY HOME

In the past, family was a very important concept in people’s minds, and it was the center of many people’s lives. Nowadays, however, the relationship between family members is not as close as before.
I want to design a map which is the route from my home to my grandfather’s home. And I will talk about my story in this map, using my experience to enable spectators to think about a question: what factors cause them ignore their families.
To be start, there is a thing I want to mention is that my grandfather passed away suddenly on 7 January 2009. But our family members were all not there on that day. And I haven’t visited him for 1 year. I regret that I didn’t tell him that I love him and I asked myself constantly “Why did you go home to visit your grandfather? Why?” Maybe I have some factors, for example, I need to go to university to study, finish our class tasks. Sometimes I want to go shopping to release heavy study pressure. Sometimes I want to go travelling on holiday. However, these are all excuses. In fact, it just only takes me 45mins from my home to my grandfather’s home by car.
Next, I did some research on the Internet, the following reasons lead to this phenomenon that they ignore their families. Firstly, people face fierce competition and suffer from great pressure. They have to work and study hard meet the demand of the society. Secondly, there is more entertainment form available. My brother was addicted to play computer game. And he was playing games outside when my grandfather passed away.
I have a plan to do my project step by step. Firstly, I will download the route of map from my home to my grandfather’s home. And I will mark some place where I usual visit. Secondly, I will explore some methods to express this story in my project. Finally, I will draw it. But now I will solve a problem: how to express a process of change on a paper. Maybe I need to try different materials.
