This breathtaking abstract textile diptych stands as a monumental artistic statement within the celebrated Cartographies series by international contemporary artist Ana Seggiaro. Formulated as a two panel multi piece installation the artwork utilizes worn out old school maps printed, on a textured black canvas ground to construct intricate imaginary geographies. The first panel transforms South Americas cartography under a heavy tactile intervention of chaotic multicolored red, green and yellow embroidered loops mimicking global wind trajectories. The second panel balances a dense patchwork matrix of multicolored concentric circles over Northern Africa, juxtaposed with a prominent textured crimson vortex below navigating boundaries and human identity.
 
In the mid-2000s, Ana Seggiaro made her first small-scale collage works on paper. Starting from pages of books, maps, and scores, she carries out the first series intervened through embroidery and painting. In these works she finds the universe of cartographies, using maps as supports for the construction of imaginary geographies. This search leads her to tackle larger works. Thus, she recovers old school maps worn by use, where the black rubber acquires a broken texture, generating a topography like that of skin dried by the sun. She intervenes in these maps with abstract figures and images of paper airplanes that fly over unknown landscapes.
