In the assignment of ShoSho, Cinemore was asked to film and edit 8 videos that were part of the exhibition “On the Map” at The National Archives.


The National Archives manages the Netherlands’ largest map collection with 300,000 maps, 400 atlases, and map books. Many are unique, hand-drawn pieces created for specific purposes, such as managing dune areas or establishing road networks. Some served as propaganda tools.


In the “On the Map” exhibition, themes like “On the Road,” “Maps and Colonialism,” and “Man-Made Netherlands” showcase the intentions of map commissioners and creators. Interviewees share stories about historical maps that hold personal significance for them. As a visitor of the exhibition, you can create your own travel journal and give personal meaning to the maps.
