The Galaxy Project

The Galaxy Project brings cosmic imagery into textured mixed media art. I use resin and mica to create surfaces that invite a closer look, with luminous effects that offer another view when the lights go down.

Galaxy 9.2023 is featured here in two actual photographs. Switch between them to explore the work in the light and glowing in darkness.

A closer encounter

Texture is central to this project. The work gives an imagined galaxy a surface and a physical presence, bringing something distant into the space around us.

The glow adds another encounter with that same composition. Look at one view, switch to the other, and notice where your attention moves.

Explore the surface and the light

Start in the light

Take your time with the visible surface. Look across the composition, then return to its smaller details. A photograph offers one view; encountering the physical work offers another.

Return in darkness

Compare the glow photograph with the light photograph. Which areas hold your attention first? Does the composition feel different when the surrounding room disappears?

From the studio to your space

My art is made to invite curiosity. You can spend time with a piece, move around it, and return to it under different lighting. Follow the individual artwork’s guidance before exploring its surface by touch.
