Exploring Magellan’s last journey; his attempt to circumnavigate the Earth in one go, sailing clockwise from Spain. He was killed in the Phillipines and his journey ended. This book records significant places he landed, or passed by, with names and dates lasercut into the fabric. By reading it clockwise, places are noted, with the dates on the reverse of the fold. The piece refers to time, movement of the earth, the rise and swell of the sea. The blue symbolizes ‘darkness made visible’ and the cold deep.
