Enjoy the new artwork Epidermis:

The surface of our moon as a tactile skin of shallow bumps, ridges, and subtle shades of colour, as if the pelt of some ancient being...

Like many of you here on the forum, I often wonder why I am drawn to the moon. Epidermis sets my thoughts in motion about our need to touch the surface of a thing. Perhaps this harks back to our infancy, when touch was our first tool to explore the universe. Touch remains our primal sense, despite our reliance on our more detached senses of sight and sound...

As a child when you look up towards the stars (without the aid of a telescope or binoculars) then the only other thing visible is the Moon really.

I'm still curious as to why astronomy and space are NOT more popular (perhaps it's time has yet to come? maybe once we actually start to land again on our Moon in person and on other Moons & Planets it will finally rekindle that sense of wonder in us that we had as children but which so many lost later in life) :-(
