Witch Head Nebula

Witch Head Nebula

2025


Witch Head Nebula draws inspiration from the celestial formation of the same name, translating cosmic imagery into the intimate scale of drawing and photopolymer print. The work captures the interplay of light and shadow, echoing the nebula’s spectral presence and its shifting contours across space.

Material & Process

  • Medium: Drawing / Photopolymer gravure
  • Paper: BFK Rives
  • Dimensions: 12" × 16"
  • Edition: Hand‑printed series of 10

Concept

This piece reflects on the act of mapping the immaterial—how vast astronomical phenomena can be inscribed through human gesture and process. Each impression becomes a fragment of the nebula’s spectral form, balancing the expansiveness of the cosmos with the intimacy of hand‑printed marks.
