Mars Resin and Craters Carving

This carving is participating in the Interstellar Research Group's 9th Interstellar Symposium Art Show, October 12-15, 2025 in Austin, Texas. If you are not at the Symposium, please do not order this item! Instead, please reach out through the Coop and I'd be happy to craft something similar for you.

This unique topographical art piece brings the rugged beauty of Mars right into your home. Crafted with precision using a CNC machine, this carving captures the planet's distinctive craters and valleys in striking three-dimensional form.

The reddish hues of the poplar wood evoke the Martian landscape, while a teal resin inlay adds a touch of artistic flair, symbolizing the possibility of water – and life – beneath the surface. Mounted on a sleek walnut base, this piece is ready to be displayed on a tabletop, shelf, or hung on a wall. This carving includes an error in the machining process evidenced by the semi-circles visible in the sides of the craters. This is why it is priced lower than other carvings of similar size.
