These small soil samples explore the artist’s long-time fascination with space exploration. These samples mirror the chemical composition of Martian regolith to about 98%. Enclosed in a simple polyethylene dime baggie, they carry the essence of another world: silica, iron oxide, aluminum oxide, magnesium oxide, sulfate. A tactile connection to the red planet, merging a fascination of simulation and synthetic materials with the tangible elements that compose our celestial neighbour.
