The Oyster Nebula Project explores a cosmic landscape through resin, mica, sand, paint, and grout. Its textured surface invites two kinds of looking: taking in the whole composition, then moving closer to discover its smaller forms.
Light changes the experience. The canvas has a visible surface in the light and a luminous presence in darkness. Both belong to the same work.
One canvas, two views

The materials make the landscape
Resin and mica work alongside the rougher textures of sand, paint, and grout. Together, they give this abstract space scene a physical surface rather than a flat image.
The close photographs show how much happens within a single canvas. Follow the corners, the middle, and the smaller details before returning to the whole piece.
