When I first purchased this canvas I noticed that it had warped and lost it’s shape. This influenced the whole piece. The twisting and bending of the shapes found within this painting are representations of something being twisted, warped and bent out of shape. The colours were chosen to mimic those found in the “Warp speed” graphic in Star Trek The Motion Picture. Furthermore the white and black areas are representations of stars and space streaming past as the starship jumps to Warp.
