スミソニアン博物館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (スミソニアン博物館Instagram)「Gwich’in artist Margaret Nazon grew up looking at stars in Canada’s Northwest Territories but she didn’t incorporate her childhood passion for astronomy in her art until she was in her 60s, after seeing images from the Hubble Space Telescope. Swirling galaxies are not traditional subjects in Gwich’in beadwork, so Nazon developed her own signature style. She created this artwork for the “Lights Out: Recovering Our Night Sky” exhibition at @smithsoniannmnh, and it will later join the museum’s collection. “Lights Out” focuses on how the night sky—and its disappearance due to light pollution—affects all life on Earth, from natural ecosystems to human cultures. It’s on view through December 2025.
