Water Imprints: Experiments Unfolding History and Landscape
Author: Perez Lopez, Irene, University of Newcastle, Australia
Abstract: The article is presenting the research designed to unfold original landscapes and discover the transformation of Mulubinba into Newcastle (New South Wales, Australia), through the construction of a visual narrative across time. The time frame spans hundreds of years of history, focusing on the impacts of urban, industrial, riverfront and coastal metamorphosis, uncovering new and unexpected relationships between space, community, and environments. The method combines quantitative data analysis and qualitative research, compiling and representing spatial transformation through time, utilising an exhaustive process of mapping.
