Temporary Atlas: Mapping the Self in the Art of Today
25/06/2022 - 25/09/2022
This exhibition presents a selection of works that explore an alternative, complementary idea to cartography, the traditional science or practice of drawing maps.
The 17 cartographer-artists of Temporary Atlas investigate their perceptions using a traditional approach to mapping but expand it along unconventional paths. They reflect upon identity, spirituality, the subconscious, emotions, physical and mental sensation, and challenge the methods and rules we use to interpret such maps.
