Original artwork description:
This piece came from a fascination with humanity's desire to be made permanently significant, often through religious dominance and monumentality. The setting is a mashup of the mortuary temple of Hatshepsut and a midwest dive bar. Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine) gazes upon the top of the obelisk, or pyramidion, historically inscribed with the cartouche of the owner and gilded with a silver gold mixture called electrum to catch sunlight . The portrait is taken from the Star Trek: Voyager season 4 episode 21 'The Omega Directive' where the starship encounters the omega molecule, infinitely complex yet harmonious- and incredibly dangerous. Ultimate achievement collides with the chance of total failure.
