Theo Simpson | Map of Horizons

Map of Horizons is the second part of an ongoing body of work, following on from A Dark Interlude (2020).

The work sets out to shape a new idea of landscape; through its evolution, manipulation, histories, mythologies and order. It considers how significant the interplay of these forces are, in accordance with our idea of reality and todays world.

This chapter of the work looks back as far as 6000 years, with the first evidence of humans altering the natural world, to the age of discovery and the new character of civilization in the age of the machine.

Whilst the work concerns itself with the blinding depths of this irrevocable evolution, it also speculates upon new events and technological realities that will shape the future.
