Katie Paterson has become part of an exciting, ambitious new project, STARSPHERE, alongside artists and creators Hiroshi Sugimoto, Vik Muniz, Yukimasa Ida, and Mago Nagazaka.
STARSPHERE is described as 'a project to bring space closer to everyone and join together to acquire ”Space perspectives”. '
The “space perspectives” that are so integral to the STARSPHERE project mean not just the physical perspectives of viewing things from space, but also the intellectual and emotional perspectives of perceiving and contemplating thigs through space. Individuals and various communities will be connected to space through a satellite that anyone can freely operate and use to take pictures. Enjoying and updating the things, ideas , and culture that surround us from “space perspectives” will enrich both our daily lives and the future of the Earth. This is a group project where the class consists of all approximately 8 billion people on Earth.
Katie will create 'Art from Space perspectives' in the coming months.
