Inđija Map Poster & Print

Inđija is in the Syrmia district of Vojvodina, roughly midway between Novi Sad and Belgrade. The ground is so flat that the street pattern looks almost like a diagram. From above, the town is a loose rectangle of blocks and low houses with long back gardens, surrounded by fields that run to the horizon. The wooded ridge of Fruška Gora rises to the northwest, where the plain ends.

The strongest line on any map of the town is the railway between Belgrade and Novi Sad, which drove much of Inđija's growth in the late nineteenth century. The motorway runs close by, and between the two sit warehouses, the station district and newer industrial plots. On an Inđija map poster these straight transport corridors frame the finer grain of the residential streets inside them.

Past the edge of town the pattern changes to long farm parcels and field tracks, the usual texture of Vojvodina farmland. Village roads lead off toward nearby settlements and toward the Danube, which flows a short distance to the northeast. In black and white, the contrast between the dense town core and the ruled lines of the fields becomes the main subject of the print.
