Thomas Jenkins turns maps into bold, layered prints that look like they’ve been dipped in liquid color. His 2012 screenprint Quadriptych pairs ocean blues and greens in repeating panels that read like a visual atlas. It’s a straightforward idea—color-coded seas on paper—but the result is a crisp, modern remix of cartography. Scan the right side of the screen to see how Jenkins flattens geography into pure hue.
