This Friday’s featured artist is Joao Machado and his extraordinary map collages!
I’m amazed by his technique of organizing small pieces of maps into intricate mosaic portraits!

Everybody needs a map to understand the physical world we live in. We look to maps to understand the spiritual world, as in astrology, for example. We need maps to understand each other in this constant exploration. An exploration of both the extent of the galaxy and the depths of our own inner-space.
