The World’s mine oysterA globe, by geometrical definition, has infinite points in its surface. Therefore by unfolding it (a geographical projection) we can have infinite maps, with infinite point-of-view.
Andrea Hvistendahl is a Swedish artist that works (also) with the issue of globes. I have met her in Stockholm in a wonderful spring evening, with my friend Po Hagström. We had a great time, very inspiring talk on each others work. She gave me the tip of antique shop in Stockholm, specialized in globes. I really like her work, all thought I haven’t seen it all I want to publish some of the pictures she gave me about her globes.
