PROJECT:
Currently in residency at Zaratan, she is researching the varied and heterogeneous line systems that are used on sea charts of the 15th and 16th centuries – especially in Portugal. Sea maps of this time - called Portolan charts - were not only used as shipping lines but had a lot of different shapes and functions connected to mathematical systems, sea monsters, wind heads, gold rush fantasies and so on. At the same time the artist explores what connection lines can be made between portolan charts, African Colon(ial) figures of the 19th and 20th centuries and the ongoing Mediterranean dramas.
