Dan Mills's US Future States Atlas (2003-7) combines cartography with cultural criticism and wry political commentary about the United States' foreign policy and where it could lead. The artworks are simultaneously the medium and the message, serving as evidence that a map doesn't necessarily represent objective information but is frequently rooted in the biases, the ideology, of its creators.
