Cynthia Daignault’s monumental “Light Atlas,” which documents the artist’s 10,000-mile journey across America.
In 2014, Daignault embarked on a yearlong exploration of the United States. Traveling around the perimeter of the country, she stopped every 25 miles to paint what she saw. The resulting work, “Light Atlas,” is the New York-based artist’s most ambitious work to date. Consisting of 360 canvases – one for each degree of the circle she traveled – the paintings form a grand portrait of America.
