Antarctica Quilt

Antarctica currently holds 90% of the world’s ice. Our handmade quilted map illustrates the movement and velocity of this ancient, miles-thick ice as it speeds through the polar continent's glaciers, calling attention to the dramatic changes brought about by our warming world. Our embroidered map includes Scott's 1911 route to reach the South Pole from Ross Island, Mount Erubus and McMurdo Station, and a dozen different glaciers.
