“Maps do not reveal the world.
They reveal what the world is trying to hide.”
― El Primer Latido del Mapa
They reveal what the world is trying to hide.”
― El Primer Latido del Mapa
“I speak to maps. And sometimes they something back to me. This is not as strange as it sounds, nor is it an unheard of thing. Before maps, the world was limitless. It was maps that gave it shape and made it seem like territory, like something that could be possessed, not just laid waste and plundered. Maps made places on the edges of the imagination seem graspable and placable.”
