Here There Be Monsters!

Check out Sculptor
and 
the mythical sea monsters from old maps she brings to life.


"Ziphius et Orca depicts two sea monsters. Ziphius, the larger of the two, is a monster found on many medieval maps. It was believed that the creature's knife-like dorsal fin could slice though ships (the name Ziphius means sword). Orca is a whale sea monster; it's often depicted with a snouted or beaked face that spouts water from a mouth or blowhole."

an incredible interactive map showing health, education, and income by state.
Just something to think about.
