Minimal surreal blackwork tattoo of a vintage light bulb containing a small cosmic universe instead of a filament. Inside the bulb are a spiral galaxy, tiny stars, subtle nebula textures, and soft cosmic energy. The metal screw base smoothly transforms into organic tree roots growing downward. Inspired by Alan Watts philosophy and the idea of universal consciousness, interconnectedness, and the universe experiencing itself. Clean fine-line composition with balanced negative space, mystical yet calm, designed as a philosophical counterpart to an existing eye-in-a-lightbulb tattoo on the opposite side of the chest.
