:: Kentaro Nagai is a Japanese graphic designer who has come up with an innovative way to present the Chinese zodiac. Kentaro uses the land masses from a single, black and white, world map and reconfigures them into each of the zodiac’s twelve animals. The work was created for the “Piece Together for Peace” project; an impressive animated flash version of the animals can be viewed here. Bravo, well done.  // SL
