In the late Summer/Autumn of 2022, we were treated to the cosmic beauty of Mars and Jupiter in opposition to the Sun. Both planets’ close orbit to Earth combined with their aspect to the Sun allowed us to see these planets more closely and brightly than we have for centuries. It was possible to see 4 of Jupiter’s moons with only binoculars. At that same time I was working on this painting and I saw this astral arrangement as a metaphor for the mythology within my composition; The push and pull of tidal orbits and gravity as timeless feud between bootlegging moonshiners.

Thinking of my neighbours, some of which I only know from an occasional wave on the street, I imagine them in their daily activities but in incongruous situations, landscapes and adventures. My lack of actual knowledge of their life stories is completed, if only in fantasy, and made a part of unknown heroic narratives and mythologies of the banal.
