This painting, from my science series, uses a complementary color palette and the vocabulary of Post-painterly abstraction to imagine a Supernova. Which, according to some scientists, is one of the most extreme events of astrophysics in our evolving universe. Alternatively the subject could also be a cool amoeba living inside a petrie dish lab experiment. Here, they are sort of similar in shape. After all aren’t they made of the same fundamental particles? And aren’t both only observable with sophisticated technology?
