01 / Pet memorial

A quiet way to remember

Losing a pet is losing a daily companion. This keeps a happy day instead of the last one: the day they came home, framed as the real galaxy that was above your house.

You give us a date, a time and a place. We compute the point that was directly overhead at that moment, the zenith, and match the real, catalogued galaxy nearest to it that is still unassigned. The artwork is a telescope photograph of that galaxy, finished for print, with the place, the date and up to sixty characters of your words beneath it, in a black wood box frame behind acrylic glazing.

Questions

We don't know the exact day.

Choose the closest day you remember. Any date gives a real galaxy that was overhead then.

Is the galaxy really photographed?

Yes. Each artwork is made from a telescope photograph of that galaxy, from the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys or Pan-STARRS1, finished for print. Its shape, orientation and scale are the telescope's own.

How much does it cost?

From $290 for 11 × 14 in to $1,290 for 32 × 40 in, framed and ready to hang.
