Who are we among the vastness of the universe? If humans reside in the outskirts of the Milky Way on a mid-sized planet that orbits an average star, then we are indeed just one specifies of perhaps millions of others in unknown galaxies. When we view ourselves on this microscopic scale, we are truly insignificant in nature.
Planet Earth is only a minuscule sample of the billions of planets. If so, then are we to assume that other life forms similar as ours exist?
As I usually wonder about humans in the intricacies in nature, I also wonder about us as part of the universe. We see, hear, and form syllables to speak words that were developed over the ages into languages so that we can communicate.
Does our consciousness to interpret the world around us and attempt to grasp the unknown in the universe make us unique?
We experience the world around us and marvel at the unknown of the universe as we try to dissect it into elements we can relate to and identify with.
As humans, what is our purpose in life compared to the universe? I believe that we have to exist for a specific reason.
For my current mixed media project, I wanted to portray humans as a small part of the universe. It's difficult to imagine us not being as majestic as we think we are. I located a lovely female image to portray humanity. On her head I placed the planet to signify our place in the universe. For the dramatic moon's surface, I utilized an image I retrieved from the stable diffusion program, StarryAI.
I love the dramatic scene of this image. The fiery atmosphere among the clouds.

Below are my steps in which I utilized Canva, my design program, to blend the different type images. I leave with you my procedures which began with a blank, white canvas. I then added layers of elements.
Other images I used in my design are listed below.
