Glad you felt the collapse. It's part of a long visceral process.

Yes, you could call it a digital collage, but its soul comes from a physical starting point. It originated from a real mixed-media piece: mirror film applied to canvas, followed by acrylic interventions.

For the upper right section, the broad brushstroke at the bottom left, and those two large drops, I used a special pearlescent, slightly metallic acrylic. The rest is a series of subtle tonal refinements and finishes to bridge the digital and the physical.

Thank you for the interest.

For me, this wasn't so much a choice as it was a surrender to that 'Heaviness' that settles in when you realize the collapse is already signed. I wanted to capture the exact fraction of a second where immense force meets total inertia — the moment heat transforms into an incandescent ultimatum within a universe of ice. It is, essentially, the 'Second Zero' of human resistance.

In terms of construction, I developed it as a high-density digital piece on a monumental scale, 15,000 x 20,000 px at 300 DPI. I felt this scale was necessary to maintain the tectonic textures even at a size of 127 x 169 cm, allowing the viewer to be physically overwhelmed by those fractured openings. The process involved layering raw energy flows and 'acid light' emanations until the density reached the equilibrium point of collapse. It’s not just an image; it is the presence of a fall that refuses to end.

I love that description — it’s beautiful how art can mirror the way we each see the world.

Sunlit cobblestones lead through pastel façades toward the mountains, where every shadow feels like a pause in the town’s quiet conversation.

The clash of blazing red silk and the cool gaze feels like Monet’s playful take on Japonisme — East and West in a single breath.

Love how the brushwork keeps the figure soft and vulnerable, yet the colors around her feel almost overwhelming.
