Dates

Aleydis Rispa presents a series of positive photograms that form a cosmology of planets and stars. The images were produced from 1997 to 2001, coinciding with the discovery of several extrasolar planets by the Hubble space telescope. They highlight the artist's fascination with the space race and also pay tribute to Joan Miró and the importance of stars in his artistic language.
