Mysteriocity: A Junior Experimental Project by Justin Hartney (2013)

My experimental artwork depicts my feelings toward the unknown and how my curiosity pushes me to explore it. The night sky with all the stars represent the scale of the universe and how unfathomable it is. The three UFO’s are the doorway to the unknown and by abducting us, we can see the spiritual reality. The blue moon in the background rising from the horizon portrays the rarity that we explore beyond Earth.

To create this photo I originally took a long exposure of my two friends and I moving lights pointing at the camera to create a flare like effect. I then took a three hour exposure of the stars moving at night and photoshopped that picture into the night sky of the original photo. I built a UFO out of legos and then took a photo at the right angle so when I put it in my original photo, the UFO would look like it belonged. I placed a photo of a blue moon behind the original photo but in front of the stars.
