Susan Stockwell
Susan Stockwell recycles everyday materials to comment on issues of ecology, geo-politics, and global commerce. Maps allow her to identify society’s networks of power and communication. Jerusalem re-uses obsolete computer components to map Great Britain. Aside from revealing their surprising colourful beauty and map-like physical set-up, she also questions the social impact of computers: in many ways, virtual communities are displacing traditional national identities. The discarded parts are only years old, highlighting the speed at which technology and lifestyles are changing.
