“The Milky Way (Folded) — Eggs” from “The Milky Way (Folded) — The Very Old and Very Young”

ABOUT THIS SERIES:

This still-in-process series makes a simple combination referenced in the title to stretch our vision to feel the immense age of the stars and the blink-of-an-eye life of things here on Earth.

The series uses white ink painted tracings from a type of historical celestial chart that represented the Milky Way cut into thirds to better show it in detail.  This is overlaid
with clustered images from vintage illustrations re-printed on archival washi paper, cut and mounted on the handmade Japanese paper support.  Approx. 24×44″
