'''+Project & Concept: The Idea of Painting Morning Walks'''

=='''+Beginning And The End'''==

'''What do we encounter when this data is collected from nature with the digital method and transformed into an art practice with traditional method?'''

Everyone's interaction with nature is unique and individual. Even though we are sharing the same nature or specifically same place, the feelings that we have towards nature are intense and the ones we bring home with us from nature are different. Just like the leaves, tree branches and the like that I '''chose''' to bring home from Ilm Park for this project.  

The idea of drawing a picture of morning walks arose with the idea of '''visualising the relationship between nature and human-being''' moreover creating '''meaningful data'''. Choices that I made unconsciously guided me turn the pieces I collected from my morning walks into a meaningful  '''color archive'''  with the help of visualisation ability of the digital sensor.  

'''Colour of Morning Walks''' is a work of a humble memory that I will always look at this archival painting and remember my walks and the pieces I collected when I moved out from Weimar.

As each piece (leaf, moss, lichen, wood branches etc.) from Ilm Park enters the collection, it is labeled with a corresponding number (according to the order of discovery). In a notebook, I noted down where the leaves and other pieces are coming from.  

Since I moved to Weimar (01.04.2021) I have been going for a walk to Ilm Park in the mornings sometimes at 7:30 am sometimes around 9:30 am. During these walks, I realised that I had collected dry branches, leaves and lichen pieces, dry moss etc. which had fallen to the ground from different parts of the Park and I brought them home with me maybe at the beginning unconsciously but then as my collection grows more and more, I realised that the way they come together created a completely aesthetic image. I noticed that the combination of these pieces creates quite aesthetically and holistically meaningful gatherings. And with this pigments I wanted to create a '''Digital Colour Archive''' of my walks at the Ilm park with custom shades that belong to leaves and other objects.

It was my first interaction with creative coding program Processing, sensors and Arduino. I wanted to develop an idea which is "primitive" "humble" in creative coding world but at the same time meaningful.
