When I first visited the NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, one of the biggest things that stood out to me (both literally and metaphorically) was the Saturn V rocket. Just being there and walking around the massive rocket was such a breath-taking experience, but the main thing that really stuck with me was knowing that hundreds of thousands of people put their whole lives and careers into building that engineering masterpiece. Every detail, every calculation, every nut and bolt precisely put together by each of those hundreds of thousands of individuals. It is absolutely incredible. That is what inspires this project, “Made with Love.”
Seeing photos of the Psyche spacecraft development, from its large size to seeing all the various teams that put so much hard work into different aspects of Psyche, I wanted to commemorate every individual that worked on the project. My piece, “Made with Love”, is made with cardboard, hot glue, and wood (+ love!). The spacecraft is painted white, so that individuals that worked on the project can print their hands onto it to showcase all the individuals that put their hard work and love into Psyche.
