Mediterranean without Borders |
||
The Mediterranean map hasn't been published for at least 15 years |
due to profitability. This document no longer exists for the public. It cannot be folded on a table and is no longer the object of real off-screen debate.
I am an artist, and I often wonder about the presentation of these places in map making. I know I'm not the only one who thinks it's terribly sad that the mediterranean can no longer be seen in real (what we can view without the intermediary of a smile and a screen). |
I could not bear it any longer, so I began setting about tracing the lines, routes, rivers, railroads. I ignored the borders: the only thing that symbolically divides men. I was thus contented with tracing the thousands of lines which link them with the thousands of points or places of exchange: towns, little ones, big ones...
The project has only just begun; we are searching volonteers to transcript it into all the alphabets used in our regions. The map should be printed in even larger quantities. |
