Verne´s Moon
Marisa Marquez
Madrid, Spain
Artist Statement
Jules Verne is one of the biggest influences in the Steampunk movement. Steampunk mixes the 19th century fashion and mechanical technology, creating a new imaginative style.
Designing a moon full of gears is my tribute to one of the greatest writers of science-fiction and adventure of all times. His book “From the Earth to the Moon” makes us dream with fantastic voyages.
