In Quest, …the geometric order of the
checkerboard is subsumed beneath luminous shapes and layers of color that
vibrate visually and speak as much about the history of art as they do about
the history of the world. Thus Quest makes
the point that, far from being objective records of physical places, maps are
themselves consciously constructed art forms. The geography they depict exists
in human consciousness rather than within the landscape itself.
