Pentacoronae

By  Susan Eyre 2018
Etching, screen print, metallic c-type on paper suspended sculpture. “Sky glow” is the yellow umbra leaching into the night sky from light polluting urban areas; obscuring our view of the constellations, shrinking our universe and severing our relationship to the stars. As ever more powerful telescopes and data gathering equipment open new areas of the universe to our view, generating imagery we could never see with our naked eyes, we are drawn to experience space via mediated technologies. Dark sky areas are precious locations where we can still stargaze, wonder and map our own stories across the sky.
