Painter Transforms Google Maps Into Artworks [GoogleMaps]

Megan Scheminske has a good eye-she took a similar mundane map imagery you have a look at anytime you check directions with Google and spun it into minimalist, hyperlocal beauty-the ” You’re Here” series.

Scheminske’s website is actually an art project in itself, pairing photographs on the terrain that inspired them with a google pin drop of that area. It’s all very meta! But the work is novel, and engaging far beyond its gimmick. [ Megan Scheminske via reddit ]
