In Situ is a project by British-French-American artist John William Bailly to create a subjective atlas of the world through en plein air drawings. Bailly draws places as he explores cities and landscapes. Bailly has self-imposed a set of guidelines for the works. The drawings are intentionally limited to the most rudimentary medium-stone on wood, that is graphite/lead on Arches watercolor paper. They are all 7 x 10 inches / 18 x 26 centimeters. The works must be started and finished on location-in one sitting. The works do not rely on photography or other sources but rather only human perception in that time and place.
