Description
I like to think of this one as a graphical representation of my thoughts & emotions, adorned with musical inspirations at the time.
Isn't it always the case, though?
Details
18x16,5cm, ink on paper.
Interpretation hints
Beginning at the irregular frame's shape, going through the clearly detached sceneries and the variety of symbols and finally meeting the end at seemingly unrelated texts - let's embrace the journey of "Immaterial Omnipotence".
Context and influences
The very first concept sketches were done on Jan 8, 2023. I've got the leading idea and the overall message pretty quick - this definitely was not going to be something easily recognizable.
At the same time I have started to express my interest to drone, dark ambient and noise music genres, with the primary theme quickly becoming the "Threshold of the Miraculous" by Aevangelist.
I wanted to bring my traditional art skills to the next level as well - and all those things combined had lead me to this.
Composition
The work is clearly divided into two levels of abstraction - the part above the line that is darker and more defined, in contrast to the scenery below that is devoured by light and chaos.
However, there are elements that break through and set the connection between; a serpent-like creature, and a lightning.
As it goes for the frame surrounding it all - it's part of the same play of "being not obvious", that also introduces the usage of impossible figures.
Symbols and references
Just to name few (don't want to spoil too much):
- caduceus,
- ECHELON program dome,
- LHC - ALICE, CMS.
PS. Some of them are inverted.
Text puzzles
There are four texts, excluding the artwork's creation year.
Three of them are anagrams.
One of the anagrams has two possible solutions, that both point to the message this artwork shall induce.
