Moon Caryatids/Structures

                                                         Moon Caryatid 2. 40"x30". Oil on canvas.

As part of the 'Architecture of the Moon' series, these imaginary portraits of women, when merging with geometric and other elements, become objects or columns/caryatids of a possible structure.

Women Astronauts

Lunar Girl. 24"x24". Oil on canvas. 

Stellar Girl. 24"x24". Oil on canvas.

                                                 

        Space Woman. 24"x24". Oil on canvas.

According to my readings on Zecharia Sitchin’s book “the 12th Planet”, humans are not from Earth originally, but created through genetic manipulation in ancient times thousands upon thousands of years ago by a superior and more technologically advanced race. In exploring these concepts, these women astronauts represent superior beings or goddesses, creators and guardians of Earth.
