There’s so much to be anxious about right now, so I thought you might like to know that they painted the night sky inside the bus shelter outside the Ole Rømer Observatory.

Aarhus. On the road outside the Ole Rømer Observatory, named after another famous Dane, Carl Nielsen. A broad clear road in Kongelunden, the Royal Woods, with trees on either side. Looking straight at the bus shelter, one of the city’s iconic mushroom-shaped bus shelters designed in the 1960s by furniture designer Poul Cadovius. A low concrete mushroom-shaped shell with standing room and a little bench inside. The council commissioned artists to paint them with local motifs. Artist Ekaterina Poliakova painted the night sky in this one. As you wait for the bus, you are surrounded on three sides and above by a black night sky with a map of the stars and constellations and galaxies, their names written beside them. Outside, the shelter’s shell is painted like a day sky – light blue with fluffy white clouds.

Seen from a side angle, so you can see the outside of the bus shelter with blue sky and white clouds painted on it, and night sky inside. Now follows same full description as on all photos in the toot, so skip if you’ve already heard it. Aarhus.

Inside the bus shelter looking out, a sliver of ‘night sky’ above our heads with stars and galaxies. Outside, a car passing by and other cars waiting to turn the corner.
