Montreal Artist's collective Artsake will be presenting three of my maps at their latest group show.The works are from a new series referencing the songs and ideas of a few of my favorite music artists. "Trout Map Replica" is my version of the Captain Beefheart album in geographic form, using word play and embedded objects... "Yamabeirstien" is the fictional birthplace of electro faux-Bavarian persona Lederhosen Lucil and the third map, "Porterville" is a town created by using the narratives from CCR's songs.
