Artist Eshchar Hanoch Klingbeil draws a parallel between space exploration and the study of the craft of painting and the materials used in this craft. Hydra is the smallest moon of Pluto, and is described in mythology as a serpent-like creature with nine heads.

 Hydra is an inaccessible place that is mediated to humanity through machines. There is no way to experience it in a sensory and subjective way, as it involves deciphering computer code.

 The act of painting is like a journey of discovery. The tension between the two-dimensionality of the painting and the illusion of space created on the canvas represents the inaccessibility and impotence of both actions. Despite this, the romance and the desire to realize this pristine landscape continue to exist, and with them questions of re-representing a world that we cannot reach.
