Among her 100 Hand-drawn Maps series, Vadehra Art Gallery presented a Map of Korea in Frieze Seoul. One hundred people were invited to make this drawing, each person drew a map on a piece of carbon tracing paper only by using their memory. At last, Shilpa Gupta superimposed the drawing atop another and created the final piece.
