Postcards From Google Earth

Clement Valla is a Brooklyn-based artist that plays with the way we see images produced by computers. Postcards from Google Earth is one of his projects that focuses on those strange moments that occasionally happen in Google Earth where the place you’re exploring looks more like Inception than real life. These moments, that happen because of the way that Google uses their Universal Texture to map 2D images on top of 3D surfaces, have been captured and immortalized for eternity by Valla in a collection of images and gallery installation pieces.
