This painting visualises an artist being able to live within a habitable man-made bubble of
atmosphere, close to a powerful black hole, where not even light escapes from this overwhelmingly force found within some galaxies. The magnificent beauty, the splendour, and the roar from

the galaxies being devoured and swallowed up, as it keeps occuring before one’s very own eyes, would be an astonishing experience.

Seeing this dramatic power being unleashed on such a grand scale light years across and within the vicinity of a black hole, would astound one’s ability to capture it all. The huge forces and cataclysmic events would make it almost impossible to describe, using mere words.
