Starry Night

from $79.00

This image was created by combining more than 50 long exposure images of the night sky near the Grand Canyon. Once combined, we can see how the positions of the stars move across the sky as the Earth rotates, each line representing the trail of a different star.

The constantly changing perspective of the Earth reminds me of our own perspectives, which continually shift and evolve. The trails of the stars, much like the paths that we all travel along, are separate and unique, yet connected.

The color palette is eerily similar to Van Gogh’s Starry Night. How did he make out that palette from a night sky that most of us see as a near-black expanse with some speckled white dots?

“Why should the spots of light in the firmament be less accessible to us than the black spots on the map of France? Just as we take the train to go to Tarascon or Rouen, we take death to go to a star.“
- Vincent van Gogh

*** All prints are produced with gallery-quality Hahnemühle Photo Paper (HPR 308gsm) ***
