Sabine DM Region of the Moon 1972

"Sabine DM Region of the Moon" (1972) by Nancy Graves is an abstract depiction of a region of the moon, a recurring theme in Graves's work. The piece is rendered in a stippled style, using small dots of various colors to create an intricate pattern. This technique, coupled with the muted palette of blue, green, and pink, evokes the vastness and mysteriousness of the lunar surface. The work is a prime example of Graves's exploration of scientific data within a painterly context.
