Description
The image depicts a striking view of the Earth rising above the lunar horizon, casting a vivid, luminous presence against the dark expanse of space. The vibrant blues, greens, and browns of the planet's surface are rendered in exquisite detail, juxtaposed with the rugged, cratered landscape of the moon in the foreground. The composition emphasizes the Earth's solitary, fragile existence, conveying a sense of the vastness and isolation of the lunar environment. This iconic image, captured by the Apollo 8 mission in 1968, has become a powerful symbol of humanity's place in the cosmos and the importance of environmental consciousness on our home planet. ...

Brussels, São PauloFounded in São Paulo in 2011, Galeria Jaqueline Martins is a space for research, documentation and presentation of contemporary artistic production. It proposes collaborative curatorial strategies that foster dialogue between different generations and different cultural perspectives.
