The huge monochrome drawings are inspired by the Bayeux Tapestry and the artists who depicted Halley&#8217;s Comet in 1066. Much like a graphic novel, <em>Space Tapestry<\/em> tells an episodic visual story of Space travel. Mir has brought together a team of collaborators aged 18 to 24, to draw the work collectively in her studio. At Modern Art Oxford, Mir presents <em>Space Tapestry: Earth Observation &amp; Human Spaceflight.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The drawings contemplate the future possibilities of Space and the evolution of advanced technology \u2014&nbsp;particularly satellites and human space flight \u2014 in relation to our daily lives. The works explore the balance of technological progress and humanistic objectives, expressed through the work&#8217;s layered and participatory execution.<\/p>\n<p><iframe data-src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/216203195\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nAleksandra Mir, <em>TRAILER<\/em>, 2017<\/p>\n<p><em>Faraway Missions<\/em>, another chapter of <em>Space Tapestry<\/em>, which is 200 metres in total,&nbsp;is presented at Tate Liverpool, 23 June &#8211;
