Maria Loboda’s Woman Observing the Alpha Persei Cluster at Galerie Thomas Schulte blends influences from ancient Egypt, Cubism, Sci-Fi comics, and astronomy. The installation, inspired by a newspaper caption, reimagines an unknown female observer gazing at the Alpha Persei star cluster. Loboda transforms this cosmic event into a domestic setting, integrating a large wall drawing of an architectural interior.
madFaber produced the The chair of Hetepheres, Mother of Khufu for the exhibition.
