Original 3D mixed media collage. Hand-cut vintage and contemporary maps, birch ply, and gold leaf on board. Homeland presents a tightly woven field of horizontal lines composed from hand-cut strips of antique and modern maps. Its linear rhythm mimics the layered sediment of geography and memory, echoing land divided and redivided over time.Every strip holds traces of journeys, shifts in power, and reimagined borders — some sourced from maps over 150 years old. This combination of past and present invites reflection on how maps record not only topography but stories of human movement, belonging and control.The composition suggests horizon lines, boundaries, and migrations. It calls attention to the quiet imprint of lives lived across shifting territories and asks what connects us to place — inheritance, intention, or identity.Framed and ready to hang.Framed and ready to hang in a white or black frameUnframed: 50 x 70cmFramed 53x73cmSigned on the reverse of the artwork and the frame.Comes with a certificate of authenticity.Homeland presents a tightly woven field of horizontal lines composed from hand-cut strips of antique and modern maps.

Contemporary mixed-media artist transforming vintage maps into colour-rich geometric artworks exploring place, memory and belonging.

Amelia Coward is a British contemporary artist whose work transforms vintage maps and archival printed material into intricate, colour-rich geometric collages.

Trained in Textile Design at Central Saint Martins and Woven Textiles at the Royal College of Art, Amelia brings the principles of weaving—rhythm, repetition, structure and the interaction of colour—to her artistic practice.

Each artwork begins with carefully selected maps, atlases, botanical books or encyclopedias. These original papers are hand-bonded onto birch wood, laser-cut into individual circles or strips, and meticulously arranged by hand. The resulting surfaces sit between collage, painting and sculpture, with a subtle three-dimensional quality that changes as light moves across the work.

Through her use of maps, Amelia explores ideas of place, memory, migration, belonging and the shifting nature of borders. Based in Kent, England, she works from an extensive archive of maps collected over more than 25 years.

Her work ranges from intimate pieces to large-scale artworks for residential, hospitality, healthcare and corporate interiors worldwide. Bespoke commissions can incorporate personally significant locations, carefully considered colour palettes and site-specific dimensions.
