Summary
At the time this work was made the artist was reading a new theory about the evolution of mankind and Spero wanted to try and create a union between the heavens and earth suggested by this theory. The work was made in Mohave desert and shows a group of campers under the Pole star. The effect of movement in the sky is solely the earth's rotation during the 20 minute exposure during which he took the image.
