- Maps of Presence and Absence
Static, desolate and empty place. Maps do not represent any human figures although they are part of what constitutes geography of the area.
Bed- symbol of intimacy and bodily associations of humans and streets. The actual bedsheet can render the maps and it may not be so accurate as the streets are recognized as only subjectively. The names marked on the mattress are mislocated or repeated. This suggests that "there is an inevitable sameness to our movements, or that we're fated to being dislocated from reality". Who had the authority to name them? Why are they called as what they are?
Some Themes on mapping
Dangerous area (Guillerno Kuitca)
Subway/bus- naming, purpose of each stop, predestination
