Notes:
"The map is meant to detail absolutely everything and therefore it is impossible. It makes fun of our attempt to rule everything by documentation. Using maps as a starting point I was able to pull out details to add interest to it, like the legends. This map is clearly absurd but at the same time very useful."--From information provided by the artist (1st edition).
