We Have Run Out of Moons

This work between  attempts to address the transition from childhood aspirations to more grown up concerns. The objects that once filled us with joy and wonder become nothing more than common place reminders of this transition.


The room once ignited by a child’s wonder becomes the lonely streets after a parade. The festive debris washed down the drain. The outer space we once fantasized about is replaced by the solitary awareness of inner space. We have exhausted the possibilities of fictions only to face the emptiness behind the things that once excited our imaginations.

"We have run out of moons" -Wernher von Braun (head architect of the American space program).
