Maps

May 2015
curated by Scene
70 Paul Street


"Scene’s exhibition explored work from artists, designers and architects in various media and with varying interpretations of the brief, how maps are now used to evaluate, quantify and rationalise our understanding of the world. The exhibition was accompanied by a programme of talks, workshops and events exploring the importance of mapping to creative disciplines, and its relevance to our culture today."

Contributed a talk entitled, "How do Maps Show Change?" Explaining that as soon as a map is published it is out of date. Everything a map tries to pin down, solidify, on the page changes. Borders are redrawn, coastline erode, cities expand and buildings are demolished. How can this be shown, or pulled out graphically?
