While at the Clignancourt flea market in Paris, Joyce Kozloff discovered a collection of vintage maps used in schools during the 1950s. After living with them for a year, she began digitally layering new images, colors, and text onto scans of the maps. She later added texture to the prints with paint and collage. Captivating and detailed, the resulting maps tell histories not taught in classrooms.

Joyce Kozloff was a founding member of the Pattern and Decoration movement in the 1970s. Applied and decorative art practices are often the basis for her large-scale public and fine art works. Since the 1990s, she has been using maps and globes to explore issues of social and political injustice.
