Thank you ☀️
The map has folded shut. Copy after copy, it left toward walls in countries I've never been to. That was the point: a map is made to travel.
Back to the quiet work now. Watercolour, gold, pressed petals.
September, on your walls.
Last day to get the Labyrinth map.
Tonight, this edition closes for good.
One year drawn by hand, gilded by hand.
After tonight, no other gilded, numbered
copies will ever exist.

Two days left.
One year of drawing by hand, gilded by hand.
Mercator never kept his maps. He drew them
so others could cross.
Sunday night, the map folds shut.
No other gilded, numbered copies will ever exist.

A year inside one map.
Drawn by hand, gilded by hand.
Mercator never kept his maps.
He drew them so others could cross.
Now it's a print, finished by hand.
Pre-order until July 12:

You watched this map take shape for months.
Now it exists in the room: pressed into paper,
edged in gold, stamped by hand, numbered.
Mercator never kept his maps.
He drew them so others could cross.
Pre-order in bio. Until July 12.

For months you watched me draw it.
It's finished. And now it can leave my hands.
Mercator never kept his maps. He drew them so others
could cross. A map, for him, is how you resist.
Hand-finished. Arches paper. Gold hot-foil.
Limited, then closed for good.
Pre-order in bio.
A map kept by one hand is a leash.
So I won't keep this one.
One year of work. A map of a world that won't hold still.
They call the Tower the centre; I found none.
Drawn at its foot, with my back to it.
Made to move. 🧵
Fragments of the Labyrinth — note 14
One year.
The last line of gold.
The map is finished.
It happened on the longest day.
The light climbed as far as it could, then stopped.
The map. The year. Me. All holding still at once.
Soon, you'll see it too.

I put gold around everything I've seen.
Including this one.
Especially this one.
The border holds. Periwinkle. Perseverance.
Someone chose that word before I did.

I found this in the margins of an old archive.
Three figures. Three scythes.
Something watching from above.
Everything seems to be falling.
Nothing falls.
