Psyche Elements

Major: Aerospace Engineering
Genre/Medium: Acrylic paints & glue-water mix
About the work: “Psyche Elements” is my introspective take on the composition of Psyche. This piece was greatly inspired by the multi-spectral imaging that will come from the Psyche mission, and I wanted to incorporate some abstract themes behind the science. This project was a wonderful excuse for me to get messy and play with a giant puddle of paint and try to make it look asteroid-like. I tried to maintain a brown base for each canvas as a reference to the asteroid, but I also wanted to incorporate as many colors as I could to illustrate Psyche’s intricacies.
