Science has shown that the earth and the life on it were created by stars created after the Big Bang exploding. In fact, only three elements were created during the Big Bang: helium, hydrogen and lithium; all the other elements were born afterwards as the result of the extreme heat and pressure inside stars. This is why human beings, like all nature, consist of stardust, atoms from space.
Penelope’s Stargates are based on these six words – We are all made of stardust – and on the concept of universality and equality that they demonstrate in their simplicity. We all consist of the same chemical elements and we are part of a single complex system that underlies physical rules themselves.

Collectiveness and union are the driving thoughts for the creation of this work that intends to awaken feelings of belonging we have now forgotten. The link between humans and nature is powerful and vigorous, we are inseparable from the world around us that regulates our existence with its universal laws.
