- PORTRAIT OF AN EMOTION -
This second portrait inspired by Gameboy, the central figure of the DOMVS saga, unveils another layer of his persona at a different moment in his life. The tear tattoo on his face symbolizes a darker, more determined aspect, contrasting the wing tattoo from the first portrait, which represented his aspirations for freedom and change. Holding a tablet displaying a digital Vanitas, Gameboy reflects on life's brevity and our societal inherent digital narcissism. The animated, glitchy background, inspired by the golden backgrounds of Renaissance religious paintings, signifies an eternal spiritual connection, merging the infinite with modern digital aesthetics. This piece continues to blend traditional techniques with contemporary digital innovation, inviting viewers into a deep, introspective experience.
Grata Domum.
