The Sculpture
Harmony Atlas
Words from the Sculptor
The Blaeu Wall Map of 1605 AD inspired the image for Harmony Atlas. The Blaeu Map divides the world into two flat planar circles.
My objective in designing this sculpture was to create an image that presents a community's geographic (global) location, while allowing the viewer to understand their position and relationship to the greater whole.
The sculpture is constructed of stainless steel tube and aluminum plate forms with a copper coated finish. These materials interpret the longitude and latitude lines and the landmasses of a globe.
