Repainting the Mothership, Rick Fitzgerald, 2025, acrylic on canvas, 20 x 16 in. / 50.8 x 40.64 cm.

This piece started as a throwaway yard sale painting, but something lurked in the image of this spider plant...something darker...tentacles draining humans and spraying their essence across the mothership like a fresh coat of paint. Equal parts sci-fi nightmare and social mirror.
