The inner workings of every person consists of veins and pressure points that form a series of [complexly integrated networks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/optical-flow) that can be compared to the features found on a map. Shannon Rankin forms these connections by pointing out how literally these human and geographical features align with each other through her work. Her art also demonstrates the mental and emotional connections people have with geographical locations such as fond memories of road trips, the various cities and places they call home, as well as their attachments to the people in certain locations.
