About this Event

Learn more about Contemporary Cartographies: Mapping Identity, MOCA Jacksonville's latest exhibition featuring works from its permanent collection curated by Assistant Curator Shana Dickler.

A map is commonly defined as a graphic representation, drawn to scale, that concretely depicts features of an area. However, the way in which each of us map our world is abstract and individualistic, informed by our unique experiences. Contemporary Cartographies includes works from MOCA Jacksonville's permanent collection, complemented by loans from local and national artists, charting their surrounding landscape both literally and figuratively; whether it be through tracing a familiar route, capturing the movement of a bustling city, or portraying the people and features of the milieu that defines them.
