FOLLOW THE SHIP stems from the project I WILL FOLLOW THE SHIP, which deals with the hybrid notions between drawing, the re-interpretation of historically-drawn ship graffiti, and contemporary technology. Located on the facades of wayside chapels throughout Malta, it is thought that these ship graffiti—ephemeral etchings in stone—acted as 'ex-voto' (votive offerings of gratitude, hope or devotion) in view of respective journeys and ships. They are historical vernacular iconographies which speak of ancient local tales of faith and salvation across the Mediterranean. FOLLOW THE SHIP, consists in one component of the project, that illustrated this exploration via a generative digital video work. It ceaselessly forms new drawings and re-interpretation of ships, departing from the intersection of an eye-tracking database of Matthew’s gaze while looking at the historical ship graffiti, with other algorithmic layers. An extensive database of morphing images of the Mediterranean Sea serves as a background to the transforming drawings, influencing the creation of new points and coordinates for generating additional imagery. The transitions of the video work are purposefully designed to be slow paced, contrasting with a fast-paced digital world and inviting us to activate our perception and attention.
