Gouache on 1826 lunar engraving

Historical Context

This work is painted atop an 1826 astronomical engraving of the moon.

Artist’s Note

Three intertwined muses lay across the face of the moon: celestial bodies. By painting women onto a historical object intended for scientific observation, the work shifts the conversation from measurement to mythology — from the study of the heavens to the interior world of intuition, femininity, and gaze.
