Branches, cords, floral wire, snail shells
Mattangs are oceanic stick charts in which branches and coconut-leaf midribs map sea routes and currents to islands—denoted by shells. These early navigational systems are here transferred to mountainous terrain. Their seemingly abstract form represents peaks and ridges, offering a poetic guide through the mountains.
