Kikai Caldera Explosions: Great Harmony #8 NL

South of the Satsuma Peninsula in the Kyushu district of Japan, the oceanic Kikai Caldera experienced a gigantic volcanic explosion 7,300 years ago. This cataclysmic event rendered the western half of Japan uninhabitable, forcing its people to evacuate and disperse across the globe. This artwork captures the moment of the super explosion's inception.

The composition features a vibrant blend of light and cool colors, presenting abstract patterns with intertwined blue and fiery orange hues. The blue tones evoke the color of the ocean, while the vivid orange represents the explosive fire. Fluid splashes and dots create a dynamic sense of movement, with white accents symbolizing air bubbles, echoing the immense energy and turmoil of the ancient volcanic eruption.
