Mission Moon Glow hopes to make you rethink your relationship to the moon! Carol + Tom Turner celebrate Talkeetna’s connections to the moon as a shared experience. For this unique lunar experience, based on Tom Turner’s Lunar Calendar works, Carol + Tom have transformed the two-dimensional photographs into a large-scale three-dimensional inflated moon.  Mission Moon Glow is a sculptural, and audio installation.
