Elevation to Dahlia
"Elevation to Dahlia"
Size: 5" x 7"
Papercutting on archival paper with vintage map scrapbook paper for background.
Elevation of a geographic location is the vertical distance, or height, above or below a reference surface or datum. Most commonly, the Earth's sea level is used as the reference datum. The term elevation is mainly used when referring to points on an Earth's surface. Something above the Earth's surface, like an aircraft in flight, uses the term altitude to describe the distance between the reference datum and the aircraft's vertical distance. The vertical distance of a tall building or structure uses the word height. Something below the surface would use the word depth to describe the vertical distance a feature is below the reference datum.
Elevation is depicted most commonly through contour lines on a topographic map. The United States Geologic Survey is the group responsible for maintaining accurate elevation information through high quality topographic maps and data.
May this "Elevation to Dahlia" artwork remind you that life has its ups and downs, just like the elevation changes along the Earth's surface. And may you find a helpful to way to navigate the elevation changes in your life, just as a topographic map helps one navigate the elevation changes on land.
Created as part of the Cartography of Flowers Collection.
This papercut art piece is hand-cut from one sheet of white archival paper and matted with a printed colored vintage map of France. The floral bouquet is made up of one large dahlia flower, surrounded by leaves and twigs.
