About the Item

This is a multi-panel installation of heavy-body watercolor painted panels, depicting the surface of the Moon. Mounted and ready for installation, this piece is signed on reverse. Each panel is painted in watercolor with photoralist precision. This composition and tiled collage technique, references space photomosaics assembled by space scientists to map the stars and planets. Since the first missions to space, countless space crafts have been taking photos this way. "I have always been fascinated with this style of mapping, and in creating work of art based on this method, I have drawn my own map, choosing what I will depict and how it will be displayed. I have created an impression of the landscape from an unseen world. " -Thomas Broadbent Thomas Broadbent has shown extensively throughout the U.S. as well as internationally.
