Artist Statement:
Constellations is an expression of wonder of our renewed exploration of space with the photos from the New Horizons mission and its fly-by of Pluto. I think we are all fascinated by the idea of such an extended journey and what we may discover and may remember.
Curiosity about the sky and its relationship to the cycles of nature that influence life on earth is rooted in the history of all cultures. Our attempts to understand these distant stars and planets have fueled our imaginations and inspired our poets, artists and scientists.
