#Asterisms

We met artist Amie Siegel in her Brooklyn-based studio. Siegel works variously with film, video, photography, sculpture, painting, and installation. She is known for her layered, meticulously constructed works that trace and perform the undercurrents of systems of value, cultural ownership, and image-making. This new interview presents several of her works, including the multi-channel video installation Asterisms (2021). —> Watch the full-length video via the link in bio @louisianachannel #amiesiegel @thomasdanegallery #thomasdanegallery #movingimage #photography #film #sculpture #installation #asterisms #louisianachannel

Orion’s Belt: A Celestial Trio ✨ Orion’s Belt, also called the Three Kings or Three Sisters, is one of the most recognizable asterisms in the night sky. It features three bright stars: Alnitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka. 🌟 Alnitak (ζ Orionis): - A triple star system, 1,260 light-years away. - Its brightest star, Alnitak Aa, is a massive blue supergiant and the brightest class O star in the sky. 🌟 Alnilam (ε Orionis): - A lone blue supergiant, 2,000 light-years away. - It’s 375,000 times brighter than the Sun and the 29th-brightest star in the night sky. 🌟 Mintaka (δ Orionis): - A six-star system, 1,200 light-years away. - Its combined brightness equals ~250,000 Suns, with an eclipsing binary at its core. This iconic trio spans 2.3° in the sky. Have you spotted it? 🌠✨ #OrionsBelt #NightSky #Astronomy #Stargazing #Orion #StarWalk

Yes, I know they are actually called asterisms 🤓 But we are using the layman’s term here. Pointer stars and repetition will be your best friends to “solve” the night sky. Plus, apps like Stellarium to get your initial bearings. Now go forth and get marveling at the stars above. They are magical. ✨ @utahmasternaturalist

the galaxy in a sphere!🥹🪐 We absolutely knew these would be something special- the color, the gemmy-ness, the star asterisms.. they were making for a lovely batch of high grade apatite spheres. But we didn’t expect the absolute burst of sparkles & rainbows inside each one til we took a bright light to them. SWOON!💙🪐🌌 Each sphere is high grade apatite, the quality and color here alone blowing me away. We never see apatite this good. But the asterisms & glitter bombs? Literally the galaxy in a sphere. enough said🥹 I could stare at these all day, and talk about them too, but honestly, I’ll let them speak for themselves. The quality is wild & we couldn’t be more excited🌌 Available this Sunday 5.25 at 6pm et during our live show! “seeee” you then! - meg & johan💙🪐
