Artwork showing space debris in low and geostationary Earth orbit. Space debris includes thousands of inactive satellites, fragments of broken up spacecraft and equipment lost by astronauts. This artwork is based on density data, but is not to scale

This is bad bad bad terrestial Feng Shui! Terrible! We need to clean up that clutter! Oh..ick…it just makes me cranky looking at it. GOD!
This reminds me of Raphaelesque Head exploding which was always an evocative, gorgeous space garbage scene to me. I inexplicably found it in a strip mall in a crap part of Calgary in the mid 80s (I didn’t know what it was at the time…i was a goofy suburban teenager). I loved it so much I drove home to my parents (before the time of the cellphone) explained it best I could, had the presence of mind to mention it was by Dali and they sent me back with a visa. This is how they came to own one of 300 signed prints.
That is the end of my story.
