Existence and imaginary complement each other when we take the time to contemplate our surroundings. Reality has dimensions much larger than the obvious, and our perception is stimulated by a presence larger than our world.

Presence

One of the main goals of artwork is to find pure expression, but this "purity" is often neutralized by the sterility of the machine. My quest is to use computational processes as a rational creative basis and make it personal and intense.

Resonant Cycles

Bones should be a symbol of life. The bone structure is perfectly calculated to support life, it is the foundation for muscles, organs, other living tissues in the body. They are the only part of the living being that does not decompose and is a mark of its existence in history.

Baba yetu, yetu uliye [Our Father, who art]
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina [in Heaven. Amen!]
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye [Our Father]
Jina lako litukuzwe [Hallowed be thy name]

Myriad of Gradients

Hi, my name is Igor, I'm passionate about art, culture, and the space between the physical and metaphysical worlds. I've been producing art since 2001, and my production goes from classic drawing and oil painting to 3D animation and visual effects. I seek to create relationships between the physical and metaphysical world, immanence and transcendence, the natural and the supernatural, the concrete and the imaginary. I sell NFT art on MakersPlace (Ethereum), KnownOrigin (Ethereum), 1stDibsNFT (Ethereum), Crypto.com (Cronos), OBJKT (Tezos), Dartroom (Algo) and Formfunction (Solana) platforms. My artworks were exhibited at Metaverse Art Week (Decentraland), NFT São Paulo (Spatial.io), and in private galleries in the metaverse, and I was highlighted as an artist by KnownOrigin, Museum of Crypto Art (MoCA) and Museum of Digital Contemporary Art (MoCDA).

The Being is more than material. The layer of immateriality goes beyond the physical part, it composes the individual and at the same time transcends beyond him. Every belief system incorporates material symbols to indicate or represent what goes beyond the tangible, virtualizing something that is at the same time conceptual, cultural, and spiritual.
In this artistic series "E T É R E A" this layer appears superimposed on the person's image as a symbolic representation, through augmented reality, expanding the perception of the Being beyond the material.

ἐφήμερος (pronunciation: ef-ay'-mer-os) is an ancient greek word referring to something that has a short duration.

We all have the desire and quest for transcendence, and in ways not only religious or spiritual. We transcend by finding freedom and freeing ourselves from imposed ties and oppressions.

When freedom takes us beyond

Our perception arises from a flow of sensations, awareness, and thoughts. 
But is everything we see really ahead of us? And is there not much more to the universe than what our eyes can see?
