Tiffany Chung’s cartographic and installation works examine conflict, migration, urban progress and transformation in relation to history and cultural memory. She usually begins a cartographic project by researching the history of a particular city, its current state of development and future planning projects. She then searches for topographic maps, urban-planning charts, geospatial statistic cartograms, and other graphs from specific periods in the city’s history that she would like to examine, combining and juxtaposing maps from different time periods in her work. She executes her map drawings in the same manner as a cartographer, using grids to ensure that the original maps’ layouts will be rendered accurately and precisely. Colourful lines and dots are then added, using ink and oil, which are coded as in a map’s legend to indicate important information that is hidden. The various dots also refer to microorganisms, suggesting life.
