PRESENZA - Beyond the Reach of Time

Freedom of the Imagination

When Mario Campagnaro began making this globe, he had no specific plan in mind. The work evolved over several years, during which he gave his imagination free reign, adding new elements as his ideas took shape. Among them are a church, the moon with astronauts perched on a rocket, Alcatraz Prison, Montreal's Jacques Cartier Bridge, typical Japanese structures, the Tower of Pisa and the Eiffel Tower.
