The Cosmic Strips are a cosmology in 20 parts--a personal perception of the universe in a multi-layered, visual narrative that makes use of abstract painting, graphic forms, drawing from life and photographs, and real and imaginary landscapes. Influenced by orchestral fantasias, comics, science texts and named in honor of Cosmic Comics, a set of short stories by the Italian novelist, Italo Calvino, in which he imaginatively personified astronomical occurrences--each panoramic panel presents a story full of symbols and abstract language.
