Graphic artist, known as DAU-DAW creates fictional maps that honor nature, animals, and the bond that binds them together. The artist grew up in the countryside of Aarhus, Denmark, where he developed a huge passion for his natural surroundings, which you can clearly see in his work.
“The ‘maps’ are all divided into different countries and every mountain, every lake, every city and every ocean in these pieces are named after everything relevant to the title of each piece,” the artist wrote on Bored Panda. “Take for example Elephantidae – Land of the Elephant. Everything in this ‘map’ is named after both fictional and actual elephant species that are either extinct or still around today.”
To finish each map, DAU-DAW needs between a few days to several weeks. Scroll down and check out his creations below.
