A Map of the Inner Territory

2025

Acrylic, Ink, and Stitching on Cloth

60 x 40 in

In this artwork, the artist depicts the landscape through maps, weaving themes of nature and control. The story starts with a fishbowl, where we usually trap a small being in confinement for our enjoyment. But instead of a fish, it is a form of a baby, with a tree growing from within it. By using stitching and acrylic, it blurs identification, making it difficult to tell whether the figure is a child, an animal, or something in between; a beak-like feature contributes to the ambiguity. It also shows the backside of a heart, providing an unexpected perspective on something quite familiar.
