About this work

This piece looks like a collage of old maps and a dark, rough patch in the middle. The maps show towns and rivers, with faded blue and beige lines. The dark shape cuts across them like a shadow or a stain, uneven and thick. That dark part might be paint or something else stuck on—it’s not smooth. The maps are torn or worn, with some edges frayed. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
