ThirtySix Views of the Moonis a meditative collection of nighttime exposures made with book pages from texts referencing the night sky spanning the last tencenturies.Drink wine and look at the moon and think of allthe civilizations the moon has seen passing by̷— Omar Khayyam, 11thcentury mathematician and poetTaking his cue from Omar Khayyam’s poem, Ebtekar produces a vignette of windows to the moon, inviting us to shift the direction of our gaze.In his process, the artist works with a photographic glass plate negative of the moon from the Lick Observatory archives in Northern California, treating each book page with Potassium ferricyanide and Ammonium ferric citrate (cyanotype) to make the surface of the page lightsensitive. Then, Ebtekar exposes the pages overnight in the UVlight emitted by the moon.This project challenges viewers to imagine the the moon looking at us, seeing ourselves as the objects of the moon’s billionyear gaze.There
