This artwork is embedded in a 3 inch deep, mat black frame. With its black background it creates an extreme depth. You are looking into a black hole. That term has been established by a physician in 1967 and since then had appeared in numerous science fiction movies. Today everyone has an imagination about the name Black Hole.
Themes like the origin (not genesis) of the universe, stars and planets had been intriguing me since childhood. For me the Startrek series on the 1960ies was an enlightenment: the endless space, interaction with alien species on far away planets, travelling faster-than-light and above all, teleporting.
That time back it was all pure fiction. Nowadays serious scientists are seriously researching on those matters. Some of the fictions already became reality.
All those thoughts are woven into this artwork. In your fantasy you can nourish your imagination of a future interstellar species (Elon Musk), while you watch the artwork creating new never seen before miniature worlds.
You turn the picture and with that you change the world, you literally change the world. Every day a new planet, a new landscape is born thanks to your interaction.
We could say it is like quantum physics: something appears where was void before.
Change, movement and evolution are the essentials of life. It is the concept of Sandman's kinetic pop art.
A moving sand art is an enhancement for your home or in your company.
Watching the sands moving is stimulating alphawaves in your brain, bringing you into the state of concentration.
You can fall into a kind of meditation without any silly poses or learning special techniques. You relax within minutes, getting rid of negative influences of the day.
Just turn the picture and see what happens. You will be surprised.
Your friends will be surprised as well, especially because none of them has one yet.
'Black Hole' has a diameter of 101 cm and the weight of 47 kilos / 103 lbs. The weight is coming from the extra thick panes needed for the sands to move slowly. It takes days to establish the perfect balance of sand, water and air.
Like any other of my artworks you can adjust the speed of the moving sands by changing the amount of air in the artwork. Evaporated water can be refilled. The necessary tools are included.
KB masterpieces are single action made works, which I create once you placed your order. Therefore it can take up to 3 months until the work is finished. Please consider that waiting time or choose on of the works which are available from my showroom.
Sandman is looking forward creating the artwork of your dreams.
Of course I love to answer all your questions.

Sandman‘s comment:
"Art should be accessible and understandable for everybody. Like Andy Warhol copied his best designs, I do the same. That‘s part of the pop art culture.
The sand in my pictures tells stories and stimulates the fantasy and imagination of the onlooker. Watching the floating movements exhilarates and relaxes at the same time. The watcher becomes the artist by interacting with and moving my works. It is much more than just one single picture".
