Pantography was established in 2015 by London-based artist Guy Gee, drawing inspiration from the ancient Greek pantograph; a tool historically used to scale drawings. Notably, pantographs played a key role in producing the world's first postage stamps, introduced in England in 1840. This innovation sparked a global revolution in communication, with nations swiftly adopting and personalising the concept. As one of the earliest forms of mass media graphic design, stamps have long served as a canvas for cultural storytelling.

Gee's ambition is to create an artwork representing every country in the world. Each artwork is realised by extensively researching thousands of stamps and then selecting one to reinterpret. These intricately engraved miniatures are then enlarged and digitally reimagined, offering a fresh, contemporary perspective on their original designs.

Over the past decade, Gee has meticulously refined the collection, working with over 300 stamps from nations, states, and capitals. This body of work is a celebration of heritage, geography, travel, and the art of communication.
