The Great Attractor
Mixed Media on Canvas
The universe is the reflection of our lives.
As we stand still, we do not realize we are moving. The Earth is moving through Space at 30 km
per second and the Sun is moving at 220 km per second. Being pulled by the Great Attractor,
we are moving in ways we do not understand and moving towards something that we do not
yet fully comprehend.
We cannot see the Great Attractor – that what is pulling us through the Universe. However, we
can observe the surroundings and how different clusters of Milky Ways, stars and objects in
Space interact with these forces.
This exhibition is a reflection of what we are attracted to – without being able to see and
understand the causes of the attraction. Our interaction with our society is dependent on the
Universe, meaning there is a ripple effect we cannot deny.
I truly believe that to better understand ourselves, we must observe the Universe closely.
