Geometric model of changeable planes

Two planispheres form a spherical globe-like structure. In the center of the sculpture are axes in three directions, from which the meeting of the quadrants of the map can be perceived: continents blend and merge at the intersection of the planispheres, while other continents seem to float.

In the Geometric Model of Changing Planes, the terrestrial sphere is reconstructed from two planes, forming a kind of globe that resembles measuring instruments such as astrolabes.
