It measures are 44.49 in x 28.35 in. Wool yarns have been used as warp and weft. The embroidery is made with viscose threads. The year of completion is 2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you always aim higher? Do you aim for the moon from the sky, and when you reach it, is there the next, seemingly impossible, goal in the distance? Are you a person who seeks something always greater and is always dissatisfied with the ordinary. Are you a moon reacher?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The weave of the base fabric of the work is a variation of the weave found in the German weaving model book from the year 1677. The weave creates order in the universe of the artwork, its laws of nature. The embroidered human figure is made up of small stars. We are all the dust of stars and our dreams.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"874\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_interior2-1-874x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2382 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_interior2-1-874x1024.jpg 874w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_interior2-1-256x300.jpg 256w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_interior2-1-768x900.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_interior2-1.jpg 922w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 874px) 100vw, 874px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_closeup-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Kirjottu kurkottava ihmishahmo.\" class=\"wp-image-1374\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_closeup-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_closeup-1080x720.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_closeup-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_closeup-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_closeup-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sarikettunenart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kuuhun_kurkottaja_closeup.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The human figure is embroidered with viscose yarns on a fabric woven from woolen yarns.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title of the artwork:&nbsp;Reaching out to the Moon Year of completion:&nbsp;2019 Size:&nbsp;28.3 in x 44.49 in Materials:&nbsp;Wool, viscose Technique:&nbsp;weaving, embroidery Hanging:&nbsp;The work has a wooden rod at the top and hem of the work.
