This text presents a synthesis of a wider research that attempts to reflect on the concept of network starting from its representations. First, the characteristics with representations that were the subject of the research are described. The representations that follow a particular graphic convention called graph theory have been selected. The representations based on this theory, which we will call reticular, are particularly suitable for describing a network. Subsequently, some research results emerging from the study and the redrawing of these representations are described such as the recognition of the figures within the reticular representations and their prevailing forms. Finally, it is described how this organizational form of networks that emerges from reticular representations portrays forms of spatial proximity other than physical proximity.
Keywords: networks; representation; maps
