Description

From Mark Zug's Noble Gas series, here is "Xenon".

In Mark's words...

"The fifth of the Noble Gases, from the Greek xenos, meaning stranger. She is everything alien, and her spectrum is violet. Xenon gas is relatively rare on Earth, used in excimer lasers, in ion spacecraft engines, and also as an anaesthetic � an expensive, non-toxic asphyxiant which must nevertheless be employed with extreme care. Exemplifying the exotic, she is Argon's opposite number."

I have admired this piece for years and finally snatched it :)

One of the noble gases. The painting does give off the feel of nobility and the weightlessness but with great density. All the backgrounds feel distorted and stretched seen through this spectral lens. Those elements behind her have a structure and linkages like fundamental building blocks. Xenon is right in her element.
