Flying Over Time Collection
Visions, 16" x 20", Mixed-Media and Acrylic on Canvas, 2010, by Nova Hall. Provenance: Original Flying Over Time Art Collection. Exhibited extensively from Arizona State University (ASU) to recent showcases in Tempe, AZ.

A direct conceptual descendant of Lindy, Visions plunges into the psychological abyss of the 33.5-hour transatlantic flight. Measuring 16 by 20 inches, the portrait of Charles Lindbergh is heavily distorted, rendered in feverish, swirling strokes of crimson, green, and gold. The aviator's oversized goggles dominate the composition, reflecting not the sky, but the literal and figurative ghosts he encountered during the longest night of his life. Embedded within the erratic, textured acrylic are authentic fragments of the Donald A. Hall Estate Archive, grounding Lindbergh's sleep-deprived hallucinations in historical reality. Cultivated under the mentorship of Leandro Soto, the piece uses the chaotic layering of Arte Povera to visualize the frayed edges of human endurance and the surreal intersection of man and machine.
