Description

Mapping / Invocation

by Jared Pappas-Kelley

A book made of loops, rituals, and quiet invitations.

Mapping / Invocation brings together two intertwined bodies of work by Jared Pappas-Kelley: a daily drawing practice exploring the textures of financial abundance, and a series of video compositions stitched from sound, memory, and formative queer noise. Together, they form a kind of speculative manual—for attention, for attunement, for bringing the unseen into form.

These are not illustrations, but acts. Drawings that listen. Videos that loop. Texts that trace something just out of reach. The works move sideways, favouring intuition over explanation, resonance over clarity.

This 108-page hardback art book features high-resolution monochrome and colour images as well as soft-focused video prints alongside conceptual texts. Printed on smooth, FSC-certified silk paper with a matte laminated cover.

A field guide for soft frequencies and uncertain futures. Something’s being summoned—if you know how to look.

A document of value, dressed as something neutral. Look again. Owning a piece like this is less about collecting and more about living with something that speaks to you, supporting the work, the artist, and the cultural spaces that make it possible.
