Luke Calder

I wanted to create a globe that celebrated earth in its purest form free of human influence and definitions.

I want my globes to celebrate the incredible planet that Earth is.

Ever since I can remember I have held a fascination for maps and globes. This interest, combined with my training as a traditional gilder and designer has culminated in the creation of these unique artworks.

I am a full-time artist based in the South Island of New Zealand
