SPACEWAYS TO EARTHLY III

SPACEWAYS TO EARTHLY III is part of the Spaceways to Earthly Matters series, a thought-provoking body of work that reimagines how humanity might introduce itself to extraterrestrial life. Drawing inspiration from the Golden Records—NASA’s ambitious attempt to encapsulate human civilization for alien audiences—this series transforms that concept into a physical offering.

Each piece in Spaceways to Earthly Matters consists of found objects encased in a unique sugar-based biopolymer, a material choice that is both symbolic and deeply personal. Sugar, one of the most historically and culturally significant substances consumed by humans, represents pleasure, power, and dependency. For a diabetic artist, it carries an added layer of meaning—both intimate and universal.

If we were to send a gift to an alien civilization, what would it say about us? SPACEWAYS TO EARTHLY III serves as both a poetic gesture and a critical reflection, offering a bittersweet taste of humanity’s complexities.
