Essays on Territory and the Interior

Mark Pimlott

The richly illustrated book contains a series of essays that trace a thread of ideas, images and projections that connect the American territory as conceived by Thomas Jefferson to the contemporary continuous interior environment ubiquitous in public experience. It is a story of ideas contained therein, their implementation and their consequences.

About the author: Mark Pimlott (1958) is an artist, designer and writer. He works in The Hague and London. He studied architecture at McGill University, Montréal and the Architectural Association, London; and visual arts at Goldsmiths College, University of London. His work – writing, architectural design, photography, film, public art – attempts to make the specific characteristics of places visible and so render them available to the imagination.
