This allegorical map reconfigures Sebastian Münster's "Europa Regina" (1628), which depicts Europe as a female* figure in a long gown with Bohemia at its center. It is based on the initial concept for the Meet The Memory Person project: a public, collaborative textile gown that embodies the memories of its different wearers and is passed on and altered. The Burmester curves, used in mathematics and textile design, and the sewing pattern are additional elements to the map.
