Catalogue of Art Projects in Outer Space. Planetary Nebulae

The book was a result of the artist’s idea to create sculptures from stars that have shed their outer layers and to give planetary nebulae a form reminiscent of a hare’s silhouette (a nice‑looking animal that is recognisable even from afar). This enterprise does not contradict the laws of physics, but it cannot be achieved at the current stage of technological development.

The book is based on a series of drawings and paintings by Rostan Tavasiev made in 2020 and 2021. They are reproduced in  the Catalogue of Art Projects using digital printing and are adjacent to scientific descriptions of nebulae could be created based on existing binary star systems.

The book was created as part of the Garage Library project Single Copy.
