A single route crosses the folded relief. The thin survey lines make each rise legible without flattening it.

FIG. 01 / STRATA
01 / OBSERVE
A line is a way in.
From a distance the land looks still. Follow its contours and another rhythm appears: a rise, a hollow, the patient return of a ridge. A map begins when we learn what to notice.
Lift the surface and the atlas becomes a section. Bands that seemed like a single mass separate into a record of pressure and accumulation. The cutaway is imagined; the curiosity is real.
A useful expedition changes the way you look. Record the survey you explored, its relief, and the distance you opened between its layers. Return with a question, not just a view.
