About This Painting

• A hare flees through a field of foxgloves on the event horizon of a black hole.
• Titled ‘Gargantua’ after the iconic supermassive black hole in Christopher Nolan’s, Interstellar.
• Inspired by the wild foxgloves that grow abundantly across Dartmoor National Park, a place I love to hike.
• A paradox of nature: foxgloves are beautiful, yet toxic to the heart…
• The background pattern uses Penrose tiling to represent the structural fabric of reality.
• Invented by Sir Roger Penrose, the pattern’s a nod to his parallel discoveries in geometry and black hole physics.
