Forgoing a map’s practical need to orient, guide, and measure space, have you considered creating a map to chart the contours of your home through feeling, memory, and the expressive qualities of pattern?


Take inspriation from Edgar Heap of Birds’s brightly colored Neuf Serieswhich abstractly references the gesure, shape, and color of the wooded canyons of the Cheyenne and Arapaho reservation lands. Drop in anytime between 4–6 PM to create a collaged personal map of your own favorite places using expressive drawings and patterned paper.
