Sci-Fi Galaxy

I submitted this map for the "They Draw and Travel" (TDAT) Out of This World Map Challenge, and it was chosen to be published in the TDAT book: 100 Illustrated Maps from Outer Space! Click here to learn more.

Even though we can’t travel as we wish this summer, we’re able to take a virtual journey in our imaginations. With an assist from streaming services and movies, the land of science fiction is easily accessible and wondrous. I recently watched Dark, the German twisty time travel series, and re-watched the Kubrick masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey. Other favorites include The X Files, Stranger Things, Twin Peaks and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. This illustration is inspired by all those supernatural, sci-fi shows and legends that disrupt our reality in creepy, bizarre and sometimes comical ways. Sci-fi Galaxy exists to cause disturbances on Earth, transporting us to places we could never imagine otherwise. The lettering and colors celebrate vintage 1950s sci-fi movie posters.
