A Line to the Stars

A journey across the stars and heavens through antiquated astronomical diagrams.
This all started after unearthing some dusty old scientific textbooks in my father’s collection. It's hard not to fall in love with the delicately rendered diagrams, plots and schemata that fill the books. I really loved that these purely scientific visual aids became unwitting art-forms in their own right.

My short animation explores pathways through astronomy’s roots, dating back to antiquity with its origins in scientific, mythological and astrological practices.
