COSMIC NEST
This collage was inspired by a BBC David Attenborough clip of a male puffer fish fashioning its nest on the sea floor. The nest is a masterpiece of design well worth viewing here.
With the nest as the starting point, I have overlaid it with strips of varying landscapes from across the world. In the center lie interwoven galactic panoramas of the universe, courtesy of the Hubble telescope.
To the right, a Masaai warrior leaps out, propelled by his staff, headed to distant worlds, perhaps towards a puffer fish “Saturn” far away in the cosmos.
Opposite is a starfish draped across the famed red star, Monocerotis.
A Martian landscape spreads out across the top with a cathedral window panel bursting with sunlight.
