my name is ruth, hello. |
Hello, I'm Ruth and I'm an artist living in London.
In 2011 I graduated in Digital Interaction Design from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design. My degree has lead me on to creating artwork with a unique twist to it. Every piece of art I do, whether it be a card or an illustration, is unique. I have always loved personalising my own stuff, and I want to replicate it in my work. I love creating patterns and using colour in my work. One of my interest is maps. I love that maps are unique pieces of art, yet an every day tool for us. My honours project focused on creating a illustrated map of New York City that is personalised for every user. www.ruthtullis.com xoxo |

“Maps are probably the strongest invention after the wheel” (Firket, N, 2008)
Maps should be a tool that connects you to a city. Instead they navigate you from A to B.
Map Your City allows the user to create a personal map to interact with a city allowing the user to gain a unique experience and memory of a city. The map creates a personal interaction for the user to engage with places of interest.
Researching my dissertation in New York led me to focus and design my personal interactive map on the city. Map Your City helps you interact with the geography of New York City in a personal way.
