Label TextInspired by the Foundation’s Center for Computational Astrophysics, Halloran’s Solar paintings represent various research foci, including planet formation, galaxy formation, gravity, and black holes. Like many of Halloran’s other works, "Solar" was created by painting a negative and using the cyanotype process to make a positive image. She calls this a “solar selfie,” as the cyanotype painting of the sun was created by light from the sun.
