AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

“Geopolitical Map Odessa” is a geopolitical study focusing on the early stages of the war in Ukraine and the bombings that targeted the port of Odessa.

The work is part of the “Geopolitical Maps” series, a body of work that explores the transformation of our worldview through the shifting and redefinition of forces on the ground. In these works, the traditional concept of landscape is replaced by that of a military image: a representation in which geography is traversed by logistics, troop movements, infrastructure, and processes of destruction.

The map is therefore not intended as a simple territorial representation, but as a space in which the relationships between territory, strategy, and conflict are made visible. Buildings, ports, transportation routes, and urban areas become elements of a mobile geography, shaped by the movement of forces and the gradual transformation of the territory through war.

*Geopolitical Map Odessa* thus reflects on the shift from landscape as a place to be observed to territory as a field of forces, in which the perception of space is inseparable from military logistics, destruction, and the redefinition of power relations.
