Astronaut Gloves

2022
16 in x 8 in x 7 in each (41 cm x 20 cm x 17 cm each)
Calacatta gold marble

This work is a collaboration with retired NASA astronaut Mike Massimino, who famously repaired the Hubble Telescope over multiple space walks. This marble work was milled by stone carving robots in the mountains of Tuscany and finished with care by hand during a residency with the Digital Stone Project. The 3D scans taken of Mike's flown space suit gloves had a texture and color reminiscent of stone. The heavy, rigid, stone looks soft and smooth like fabric and can also provide appropriate finishes for various other materials creating contrast between the forms.
