About Artwork & Artist Bio: Without getting into the ethics of it, we have a Moon Sample beautifully displayed on a walnut and aluminum plinth. Lunar rocks are invaluable for understanding the geological history of the Moon and the early Solar System. Which Moon, though? How was it obtained? The location data is unavailable and up for interpretation; however, assume it's a quality sample. There's much to learn or simply enjoy from this particular glowing chunk. If the piece leaves you wanting to know more, mission accomplished.
