Description
This new installation by Veronica Graham involves a laborious tiling process, requiring the production of over 2000 hand printed cloth swatches. Each one of these will be painstakingly arranged within the framework of a room-encompassing landscape mosaic. Several musical acts will help enliven the reception, during which the cloth tiles will be on sale for 1$ each."Bonus Map" is grounded in an appreciation of golden era video game pattern mapping. During the project's development, Ms. Graham also paid a lot of attention to Exploration Age cartography and Japanese woodblock prints.
Born and raised in the Bay Area, Veronica now resides in San Francisco. "Bonus Map" is a continuation and refinement of two of Ms. Graham's previous projects: an installation entitled 6000 Pins, and a book of woodblock stamps she calls "The Map of Neighboring Territories". Both of these can be viewed on her website.
