This heavens image is a picture of a sphere with the diagram of
the stellar alignments of the sky imprinted on it. It mimics the
idea of the planet earth. The implication is that the heavens can
be thought of as globe, or a finite system itself. In my mind is
the philosophy of James Lovelock regarding the earth as a single
living organism. I am playing with this notion applied to the heavens
as well. This globe of the heavens is placed inside a tank
of water, or metaphoric water indicated by the indigo color of
the ink. Inside the water with the casually resting globe is a
cloud of white that strikes its side. This cloud is also a kind
of apparition that signifies something dramatic happening to this
heavens globe. The white can be something cold, something in conflict
with the globe, or it can be anointing it or making something special
happening to the heavens. The interpretation is up to the viewer
in the end. The subtext is the ferocity of climate change appearing
on the earth.
