Missing Bowie | Acrylic, gesso, and ink on canvas | 41” x 51”
A cosmic tribute to David Bowie, this piece imagines Major Tom lost in space, with purples, oranges, and greens evoking the universe’s vastness. Lyrics from “Space Oddity,” “Starman,” The Beatles’ “Across the Universe,” Beastie Boys’ “Intergalactic,” Elton John’s “Rocket Man,” and Corretjer’s “Boricua en la Luna” weave existential anguish and resilience, reflecting the quest for meaning in a solitary cosmos.
