Multidisciplinary artist Tavares Strachan honors fallen astronaut Robert Henry Lawrence Jr once again with his pieces in Venice. Previously, Strachan worked with SpaceX to launch a 24k gold sculpture of the astronaut—the first African-American selected for a national space agency—into orbit. Here, neon writing tells Lawrence’s story while the neon sculpture “Robert” is a dramatic reproduction of his skeleton.
