One Wading River artist’s paintings are out of this world - literally. According to a story in Dan’s Papers, artist Anna Jurinich had her work chosen to be a part of the Lunar Codex, a program that will send works of art, including visual art, books, stories, poetry, essays, music, films, and more to the moon once NASA resumes missions to our natural satellite.
“The U.S.'s National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has a plan, the Artemis Program, to land humans back on the Moon in 2025, for the first time in over 50 years,” the Lunar Codex website explains.
Before humans return unmanned space flights will bring scientific instruments and other payloads first in preparation. These missions will include the time capsules that will make up The Lunar Codex.
“The Codex will be the first significant placement of contemporary arts on the Moon in 50+ years,” the website goes on to explain.
Two of Jurinich’s pieces were selected to go to the moon. One, “The Delusion and Persistence of Peace,” depicts a woman holding a dove with torn black ribbon all around her. The other is called “The Yellow Vase,” and shows a woman lying underneath a yellow vase with flowers.
