Shadow of the Earth conceptual art pin by Shane Townley, created for the Alien Robot Museum Joshua Tree

Shadow of the Earth is a conceptual art pin by Shane Townley, created for the Alien Robot Museum.

The piece references the rare atmospheric phenomenon known as the Earth’s shadow — the dark blue band that rises opposite the sunset, reminding us that we live on a moving planet suspended in space.

This pin transforms a fleeting cosmic moment into a wearable symbol of perspective, impermanence, and planetary awareness.
