A vast field of deep black space is punctuated by countless pinpoints of white and pale blue light in this monumental photograph by Thomas Ruff. Appropriated from astronomical archive images, the work transforms scientific data into a meditation on the sublime vastness of the universe and humanity's place within it. The large-scale chromogenic print, face-mounted to Plexiglas, intensifies the luminous depth of the star-filled composition, blurring the boundary between document and aesthetic experience.
