This Friday’s featured artist is Phil Stoiber and his paper lithography and chine-collé prints that contain maps!
​In particular, his 2013 series of Ivory’s Rock prints contain subtle and beautiful blue maps.

Ivory’s Rock: 4, 2013, Paper lithography and chine-collé, 22 x 16 inches approximate sheet size
From his Artist Statement:
"I am hurtling through space, swept by a current of time, sharpening my observant eye while riding the trajectory. Can I see a rocky ridge, a thriving tree, a fence post or weathered sign without questioning the impact of human occupation of the land? As the United States expanded westward from the original thirteen states, a national survey system allowed public domain of the territories. Handwriting by surveyors from a prior century overlaid on contemporary imagery prompts the questions: What routes do we travel on a daily basis? What impact do we have on the world we live in?"
