The Artist's Atelier can be found within the cave of a big moonlet. It contains a small hidden channel with two openings, which lead to multiple ice sculptures, as well as being home to Phage Station Theta on the opposite side from the entrances.

Phage Station Theta

On the far side of the moonlet (relative to the smaller entrances), a large opening will reveal Phage Station Theta. When hailed, this station will give a different set of options compared to other phage stations. When asked about selling remass, Theta is unable to do so and will respond accordingly. It also mentions an electromagnetic storm arriving within a few hours, and suggests vacating the area. If you have discovered the Atelier cave, you also have the option to ask about the statues, which it will respond by stating they're part of an "environmental impact study," and doesn't elaborate further.

Artist's Atelier

On the other side of Theta, two small openings into a smaller cave system within the moonlet are presented. These caves are significantly thinner than the other, and it is recommended to use a significantly smaller craft, such as a KTA24 or ND-LIS Kitsune, as these passages can get to the point where they scrape the paint off of even a standard K37. Both of these cavities meet at an artificial tunnel. This tunnel leads into the main Atelier room, and upon entering this room is where the astrogation point will update to provide the full name.

This room contains several statues depicting various objects, many human-like in nature, others more unnatural in form.

A statue of a humanoid with what appear to be either bear or cat ears
A statue of a bird with thin, humanoid limbs
A statue describing orbits
A statue of a human skull
A statue of an endless loop
A statue of human hands

At the end of the cave is a separate section with a statue of a delta. There are lasers surrounding the statue that follow its edges. These turn off when your ship were to pass through them, implying that they can deal damage to stuff and further implying that the statue is still being carved out.
