Insulae

Installazione, Viaggi, Natura, Paesaggio, 160x210x0.5cm
The title is inspired by the term “insula” which refers to both the island (the habitat in Roman Antiquity) and the part of the brain that controls memory.

At the intersection of these two meanings, this series features an installation nearby of a map room. On these maps islands such as Fiji, Easter or Greenland have a particular style as they were drawn using the now obsolete technique of uneven hatches.

Theses maps, carried out non scientifically, are not exploitable nowadays for obvious reasons. Indeed, they are closer to a visual impression than an accurate reading of the territory. However, these drawings were still very useful for tracking around the island, which accentuates the meaning of using survival blankets.
