For those doing work or with an interest on the intersections of
geography and art, I thought I would pass along this installation by
complexity graphic artist Tatiana Plakhova, "The End of Old
Geographies and the Birth of New Ones." As she writes: "‘The End of
Geography’ is a series of dreamscapes weaved from webs of vector lines
and nodes. The results are a mix of peculiarly anachronistic images
and cybernetics filtered through a nautically-tinged aesthetic, where
scintilla of light and matter assume the size of mountains,
symmetrically patterns are embedded within the tides of the ocean, and
compositions of densely arrayed geometries map the physical world."
