Identity, MOCA Jacksonville's latest exhibition featuring works from its
permanent collection curated by Assistant Curator Shana Dickler.
A map is commonly defined as a graphic representation, drawn
to scale, that concretely depicts features of an area. However, the way in
which each of us map our world is abstract and individualistic, informed by our
unique experiences. Contemporary Cartographies includes works from MOCA
Jacksonville's permanent collection, complemented by loans from local and
national artists, charting their surrounding landscape both literally and
figuratively; whether it be through tracing a familiar route, capturing the
movement of a bustling city, or portraying the people and features of the
milieu that defines them.
