The artwork presents a chessboard in an impressive scene in which the laws of physics seem to have been redefined. In the centre of the picture, the board floats on a reflective surface that reflects the sky and strange cosmic phenomena. The chess pieces, which have been moved to the edge of the board, appear alive, almost as if they are preparing for their next move. Swirls of clouds and star nebulae arch above them, leading in fascinating vortices and spirals to black holes and other dimensions. Planets and moons of various sizes hover in the background, creating a feeling of infinite expanse and timelessness. A monumental, ring-shaped gate opens in the background, similar to an old star clock, framing a radiant, sun-like body. This forms a warm backlight to the cool tones of the cosmos and symbolises the unification of time, space and existence - a reflection of the complex moves and strategies of the game of chess.
