Paper Towns refers to an old map maker's trick from when maps were drawn by hand. Map makers would include a town on their maps that did not exist. They did this as a way of insuring that their maps were not copied by forgers. If a map was a forgery the non-existent town would inevitably be included in the forgery. Since those "towns" only existed on the maps as fictions, they were referred to as "Paper Towns".
The series speaks to our contructs regarding the world which we inhabit and the impulse to erase history. The map images used in these works are a mechanism to that end. This series began 2017.
