Modern Cartography is an exhibition of large-scale screen prints, produced by and showing at JEALOUS in Shoreditch, London. Each of the pictures is of a mysterious, ancient landmark; a chalk figure on a hillside, a stone circle, a burial mound, or simply an unexplained and enigmatic monument in the landscape. The compositions are translated from maps, from the topography of the land itself, and rendered in the hyper-bright saturated colours of the modern, petrochemical age in which we find ourselves.
Each edition consists of just 33 prints.

The Perilous Parlour is our replacement for the erstwhile 'Zmas Boutique', which we used to host at the end of the year. This year though, the letter Z has been kind of co-opted by the Russian military who are currently at war with Ukraine, so it seemed a bit weird to use it. We were only using Z in the first place because the X in Xmas refers to the first letter of the name 'Christ' in Greek, and we were trying to be a-religious. Irreligious? Non-religious? Anyway, whatever; no more Zmas Boutique, it's the Perilous Parlour instead. As ever, we have been delving deep into our archives to uncover a plethora of rare, unusual and sometimes, almost forgotten prints... And yes, more information can be found by following the link below.
