Aurillon’s latest project incorporates many
modern techniques into the ancient
study of astrology. By utilizing photography, digital illustration, and the time-
less elements of painting and drawing, Aurillon creates visual studies of a city’s astral map. Beginning with the date of the city’s establishment, he adds key features defined by landmarks, culture, history, landscape, and his own personal experiences at these destinations.
The finished artistic rendition is printed on a mirror and placed in a frame that he designs to match. The result is a mesmerizing portal through which the viewer can experi- ence multiple dimensions as well as the city itself. Aurillon has been studying astrology and symbols for over thirty years. These two parts of his life have coalesced to create this unique project allowing his creativity to flourish.
