Friday Favorite: Lordy Rodriguez - Mixed-Media Map Art

Friday Favorite: Lordy Rodriguez

4/6/2012

This Friday's Feature artist is Lordy Rodriquez!
I especially enjoy his Geological series of ink on paper works!

From his biography:
The Geological series is a new body of work that pushes the iconography of mapmaking further into abstraction. These works omit the text that is so crucial to cartography.
Without text, the map loses its utility, and the void is filled by the viewer's own biases and experiences.

9 Untitled works, ink on paper, 10 x 14 inches each

Land Lake, ink on paper, 32 x 46 inches

Barchan Dunes, ink on paper, 32 x 46 inches

Rippled Hills, ink on paper, 32 x 46 inches

TGIF!
