On the wall



The map
Itezhi-Tezhi is defined by water held back. The dam on the Kafue River created a large reservoir, and on the map it's the dominant shape: a wide, irregular sheet of water with a crinkled shoreline and inlets reaching into the bush. The town sits near the dam, a small cluster of streets next to far larger natural outlines.
The dam was built to regulate the Kafue's flow for hydroelectric power further downstream. The reservoir lies next to Kafue National Park, one of the largest national parks in Africa. As a result the land around the town is mostly open country with little built on it, crossed by a few roads and tracks leading to the park and to the rest of the province.
An Itezhi-Tezhi map poster is mostly about water and space. The lake takes up much of the frame, the dam wall is a short, firm line across the river, and the town is a compact pattern at its edge. In Blueprint or Sand the shoreline stands out particularly well against the empty land.
The lake behind the dam spreads across the frame with a long, indented shoreline. Its bays and fingers of water reach into the surrounding bush.
A short, straight wall holds the river back. It is the one clearly engineered line in a landscape otherwise shaped by water and gentle relief.
Roads leading out of town head towards Kafue National Park. On the map they are thin lines crossing a wide, mostly empty stretch of country.
