Gianfranco Baruchello’s “Infinite Small Systems”

A beautiful series by artist Gianfranco Baruchello, who illustrates objects and creates a non-linear map of associated objects, systems, and flows.

Many of these maps “explore the relationships between the value of the artistic and the agricultural product and […] investigate the concept of work and how the economical laws regulate it.” In other words, these maps argue that small and quotidien can have vast and far-reaching impacts and origins. Based on the most recent James Corner reading, this work can be identified an example of a “rhizomatic” map, a concept borrowed from Deleuze & Guattari.
