August 13, 2023, London, London, United Kingdom: Mars War & Peace At Jubilee Square Kensington. ..Mars: War & Peace, a touring artwork by UK artist Luke Jerram., seen here on its final night on display as Jubilee Square as part of the Kensington and Chelsea Festival..Measuring seven metres in diameter, the artwork features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery* of the Martian surface. At an approximate scale of 1:1 million, each centimetre of the internally lit spherical sculpture represents 10 kilometres of the surface of Mars...The artwork allows us to view Mars from the air, as though we are a satellite mapping and studying the surface in perfect detail. Every valley, crater, volcano and mountain are laid bare for us to inspect. We are transported to this desert wasteland, to imagine what itÕs like to step foot on this incredible planet and in comparison, really value our life on Earth (Credit Image: © Martyn Wheatley/i-Images/Zuma Press/Fotoarena)
