"That's like the living ghost of an immense country trapped in a permanent un-making..."
Antonio Luis Ramos Membrive
All objects were created from waste from the production of wooden world maps.
When the laser cuts out the contours of a continent, island or country, there are always scraps of plywood. These scraps go to the trash, and then to recycling, or to the fireplace for kindling. Those pieces are left out. Or maybe they are those mysterious never-before-seen territories? I wanted to call them "Outlands."
