This piece is beautiful. The colors are mesmerizing. The detail of how the ship looking machine works is incredible, but beyond the that it has a lot of meaning. At a first glance one might think that it is a man, but it really isn't . It a being not from this planet, thus showing how our world is only minuscule part of this universe, and how there might be existence beyond ours (different but at the same time somewhat similar). Keep up the very unique work.
