Artist's note
A transit map is a confident lie — it flattens a city into five or six colours and tells you the world is made of corners.
Today's edition is a map for the other kind of commute: from late afternoon into evening, by way of the places light briefly
gathers before it goes. Every line passes through FIVE, because that's the interchange you can't avoid.
Stations are named the way shadows behave — Gloaming, Lamp-Black, Antumbra, Half-Moon — and the trains run in loops,
as shadows tend to.
