- Book Synopsis
- A reprint of the sold-out 2007 first edition with a new introduction, Mapping Water embraces uncharted artistic terrains. Tuwaletstiwa writes, "In this vast desert, a thin membrane separates the daily world and the world of spirit. This elemental landscape holds a deep reservoir of the unconscious, continually reminding me of the fragility and tenacity of life. Whether writing, painting, working with fiber, sand, or glass, I seek to embody the elusive images that emanate from the unconscious."The first section in Mapping Water explores the etymology of the word "genesis" alongside paintings that relate (and don't relate) to parts of the text, evoking thoughts on the "genesis" of ideas. Subsequent sections continue this exploration with content that varies from the deconstruction of an iconic Holocaust photograph to the construction of a series using feathers and bones to honor the spirit of a dead crow.
