"2009 Space Odysseus"

As you may know I launched a new project called "2009 Space Odysseus"
You may read the description hereafter.

Concept:

Deep field hubble telescope images are re-worked. These images are revealing pictures from the deep universe where the light has took over 10 billions years to come to us...
That's mean, we're seeing pictures from the past over 10 Billions years ago, at the time galaxies (made of billions suns, and solars systems) emerged. We can qualify these pictures as the oldest fossils we know. These images are surpassing human time conception and are revealing inside us, a kind of anguish based on the fact that we are less than a dust in universe...

This serie is called '2009 Space Odysseus'
The point is to make a virtual journey through solar system and deep universe, with our daily technologies (telescopes, computerized telescopes, online-telescopes)...
Today Scientist don't use anymore to study universe in the Visible field, but in specific ray like Gamme, X, UV, IR, Radio-frequences...
The visible field is now dedicated to the amator use. It's defining a new aesthetic dimension of aliens geographies...
This is a new definition of landscape in Art.

I have the pleasure to announce that the serie "2009 Space Odysseus"

Is now available as an edition of 100:

I hope that you will enjoy it

Have a great summer

Best regards

Valéry Grancher
