A picture inspired by the novel Solaris by Stanislas Lem, describing a planet completely covered with an ocean of thinking protoplasmic material on which appear gigantic and mysterious structures. Symetriades are formations which can reach several kilometers high and which present the particuliarity to model or even to deny some laws of physics. Steven Soderbergh's movie is an awful treason of the novel because it loses totally interest in the thinking ocean for the profit of a silly love story with a loosely philosophic speech. Picture realized with graphit pencil and colorized on computer, the background is made by computer generated picture.

Wow. This is like...wow. I mean, once you look at it, it might not seem like much, but, it has a presence, and a feel, a mystery, and a complexity.

You appear to have had one of those great moments we storytellers and artists have, where you really hit upon something. Congratulations
