The first creatures known to have had eyes were the trilobites, so Primordial Gaze seems an appropriate name for a glimpse of a trilobite eye. The viewer will gaze back, perhaps imagining the view from behind those primitive compound eyes, casting dozens of images at once into a primitive brain. What did this animal see? What lived in the oceans of 375 million years ago, besides the few paltry organisms that left good fossils behind? What thoughts ran through the mind of a trilobite? Eat? Run? Hide? Safe to say it never expected its image to grace your wall!
The field of view across this image is about 1.15mm, so an 18” x 24” print would be magnified about 500 times.
We gave this a subtle tint of blue-green, perhaps what it once experienced in the shallow Devonian seas.
