For context, the great chain of being is an old Christian medieval belief that determined the order that God put all things. I changed the “natural” hierarchy around, making the animals and humans on the same level. And instead of God being worshiped, I made God and the angels worship the alien language. Basically, a higher power is worshiping an even higher power. This work is meant to be seen as an artifact on display, and it is meant to resemble a religious scene or story. This piece is part of a body of work that examines the similarities between humans and animals from the perspective of aliens. This piece in particular is meant to be seen as not a Christian story, but instead as part of alien lore.
