The artist's website identifies it as "Space Urchin", noting that it was painted in 2018, but that's it, this one is fairly abstract. Most of the mural's background is black with the proverbial white points of light as stars. A strip with the colors of the warmer end of the spectrum, with white lines every so often, leads to the urchin, which is in multiple colors, and at its center is our big blue marble, the Earth. A figure in silhouette with a blue aura stands on the strip, almost as if reacting to what he sees ahead. The question is whether the Earth is part of the urchin, whether the urchin is producing the Earth, or whether the urchin is swallowing the earth. There are multiple fragments in the space around the urchin -- perhaps a suggestion of an explosion -- and most of them are made of hexagonal pieces, with a few that are pyramidal.
