315-moon-ride-2-dixon – conceptual art for theme park ride into galactic black hole. A modular, multi-segmented transport vehicle cruises past a massive, highly detailed accretion disk swirling into a central black hole or active galactic nucleus. The sprawling cosmic disk transitions from deep crimson on its outer fringes to brilliant orange, white, and electric blue nearer the center. A powerful relativistic jet erupts perpendicularly from the core, blasting bright beams of energetic material and star-like clusters into deep space. acrylic and gouache, 1993
