Description
Collaboration with =Smiling-Demon for Evokeone: AgeI highly recommend a visit of the site because for their newest release Evoke came up with a fresh and professional looking design, which makes browsing through the exhibition definitely worthwhile.
For this image I got the opportunity to work with one of Alastairs great panoramic photos. He is a fantastic photographer and abstract artist, so make sure to check his gallery out.
We were lucky to get a feature for this piece.
About the meaning of the image:
Better don't question the physics and meaning of all the elements in this piece. I am a Physicist; I know nothing of this would ever be possible, so there's no need to point it out. I just wanted to share my crazy ideas with you and create something really weird.

That is sooo cool >.<
The dutch angle is really awesome and gives an odd dimension to the space, and gives a feeling of disturbed gravity as the one applied on those flying rocks and asteroids.
Really amazing, keep the good job buddy !

thanks for your nice comment! Glad you like the feel to it. I always love to have action and movement in my images and flying particles are the best way to achieve this sort of effect.

Very cool and unique image, usually the birth of a solar system is represented by exclusivly warm colours, but this blue is nice and unique for the theme and add s a rather magical creationist kind of mood

maybe the fact that it's supposed to be an unnatural procedure initiated by humans would be a good explanation for the color scheme. But I have to admit I didn't think about the meaning of the colors much when I used them.
Thanks for your comment Matthew!

special! gave me the shivers in an positive way. I like the mix of cosmic greatness and calm human elements- like they would worship the events in the sky.
Find it funny that you say some pepple would say this is impossible to happen in reality...

hey, thanks for the nice comment and the fav
Often people tell me that giant planets cannot be close to each other because of massive gravitation, or that they cannot have certain colors in warm or cold environments blalablubb. Actually I'm worrying about my studies more than enough; I don't need them in my art
Btw: Your gallery is amazing! You have a really interesting and lovely dark style.

jo, man muss dazu sagen, dass evk ein ganzes jahr an dem release gearbeitet hat. o.o das design gefΓ€llt mir allerdings am besten. Sieht fresh aus
danke!

naja, das jahr scheint sich ja gelohnt zu haben... ich bin ehrlich, ich hatte evk schon abgeschrieben nach den letzten 2-3 releases^^

Hab aber schon gewusst das es etwas mit "Zeit" zu tun hatte, da waren einige MΓΌnder nicht so gut verschlossen.
