Black Hole

As someone with darker hair and eyes, I’ve always felt that my features were boring in comparison to the blues and greens of my peers’ eyes that are often romanticized. I wanted to highlight those features, along with darker skin, in a way that emphasizes the focus and the beauty of dark features. I thought about a supermassive black hole — something that absorbs light and warps space-time.

In this picture, I aim to focus on a supermassive black hole that can be found in major spiral galaxies like our own, which allows for beautiful patterns to emerge. There’s beauty in its darkness, and it’s surrounded and illuminated by light.
