Sun damage or earthquakes disrupt the clarity of information in this hotel signage in Lanzarote. The new images create ambiguities and readings which are far removed from the original intention. Clear factual instructions are now complicated images with complex messages that are emotionally charged. The orientation of the line often overlays or splits the local spaces and icons like energy transmissions, migrations, flowing veins, unravelling threads. These juxtapositions appear mysterious as archaeological fragments, suggesting that while moving towards closer involvement with the world people are widening the gap with what is physically close to them.
