The Negative Space project is a book made of photographs taken by the Hubble Space Telescope and inverted. As “color negatives” of outer space (stars, solar systems, galaxies, nebulae, black holes, and exotic cosmic phenomena) it maps our universe in a book form. The book had been conceived by the artist in collaboration with graphic designer Conny Purtill, on the occasion of Thomson’s exhibition at GAMEC, Bergamo.

This publication is part of the series of artists projects edited by Christoph Keller. Personally selected by Keller, for Textfield, as one of his top five from the series.
