Here the focuses is on anthropogenic impacts and possible cosmic influences which, due to their random effects, could have had resulted in a different outcome on Earth. My interest stemmed from the developments many nations looking outwards because of satellites and NASA transmitting real time photos of the cosmos, with interstellar travel and colonisation in their sights. My painting expresses how unpredictable events could have created alternative realities. My work explores both cosmic and anthropogenic forces using the medium of liquid acrylic paint, gravity, heat, time and cosmic energy in order to achieve my painterly intentions and a better understanding of universal influences.
