Space Station

Space Station from directly overhead

Space Station is an artwork in Florida, at a modelled elevation of 5 m. Monarch Hill Renewable Energy Park stands 70 m to the southwest, 7.2 miles off. The nearest named place is Music Power II, a artwork less than a tenth of a mile away. BROWARD CO A1A SCENIC HWY passes 2.6 miles off.

Here a coffeepot teeters atop precariously stacked cups and saucers alluding to Latin American societal inequity and an economy built by wealthy coffee plantation owners on the backs of impoverished, indentured farm workers.
