FROM_ORION is an award-winning marvel of design, a scientifically precise three-dimensional map of the Orion constellation that forces us to think outside of our self-centered perspective.
While its encoded message may not be immediately apparent from afar, as viewers approach and gaze upward, they are greeted with the revelation that this is a sky map, with each star location connected to reveal the form of the constellation Orion as described by the ancient Greeks.
From the artist: "This sculpture is inspired by childhood memories of looking at the night sky with my father, learning about ancient myths and gazing with wonder at the majesty before my eyes of innumerable worlds and unimaginable distances. My hope is to widen viewers' perspectives beyond our differences and connect through the universal truths we share on our tiny planet."
