The Edible Planetarium: A Universe in a Cake Box

Home: Mirabad, Uzbekistan

This upcycled art piece combines glow-in-the-dark constellations, a suspended solar system, and edible meteorites to create a multi-sensory experience that explains the cosmos in a way that is both beautiful and accessible to everyone.
