"Coalesce (She Makes the Stars)"

This cosmic creation myth photoillustration features the lovely model Nia spinning stardust into planets.

4x6 print, matted to 5x7.

Also available as a limited edition 12x18 print (in the Fantastical & Whimsical section)

I wanted to create an image that combined both a mythological personification of creation and the leading scientific theory as to how planets are created, which is the condensation and collection of stardust/matter resulting from the birth of stars.
