Close ups of Chestnut's digital prints.  These prints are very large in real life.  I like the use of her maps, constellations,  and grids in her work.  Then she has images of animals, bees, and other natural objects layered in contrast to the linear influences of the maps, etc.  I wondered how these would look being straight out layered collage.  How would the element of texture affect the final result? (note maps are of Albemarle County Roads and neighborhoods)
