Named after the North Star, the near-fixed point around which the northern sky appears to turn, Polaris follows an astronaut through a luminous vortex of blue, green and yellow light. Suspended between motion and stillness, the figure becomes a meditation on finding direction in an immense and ever-changing universe.
The red-accented white suit emerges from the surrounding radiance, while the dark visor catches the shifting colour and energy of the space it moves through. Carefully observed detail meets surreal imagery shaped by AI-generated references, and the swirling light suggests a passage into the unknown rather than a fixed destination, speaking to exploration, uncertainty and the human need for an anchor beyond the familiar.
These prints are reproduced from James MacLaren's original oil painting, part of his six-painting Astronaut Collection, a three-year body of work exploring humanity's journey into space. Each print captures the vivid colour and expressive, layered brushwork of the original, bringing a piece of the collection to your wall.
