The artwork features a delicate blue chrysanthemum surrounded by delicate pink baby's breath, growing along a spiral shape adorned with brass and spikes.

The blue chrysanthemum, with its rich color and intricate petals, symbolizes a connection to the divine and a sense of calm and tranquility. The pink baby's breath, with its delicate blooms and light color, represents innocence and purity, as well as the fleeting nature of life. The spiral shape, decorated with brass and spikes, adds a touch of contrast and edge, reminding us that beauty can be found even in unexpected places.

Created during February 2023 using Houdini, Substance Designer, Adobe Photoshop, and Octane Render.

Blue Melody

This is a commemorative token minted to celebrate the release of the Informal Symmetry series, minted on my personal manifold contract on 22-11-2022.

"Informal Symmetry explores the relationship between rules and feeling when it comes to human expression. Mankind has been fascinated with understanding beauty and trying to find a ruleset that can guarantee success. But whenever a ruleset becomes the standard, man tends to break out of it. That beckons the question, does beauty lie in our concrete understanding of the natural world, or our approximation and appreciation of it?"

Medallion #1: Informal Symmetry

Through my artworks, I explore the different aspects of depression and try to convey that feeling to the world. Reverie in particular is about finding peace by accepting the environment that one finds him/herself in.

This artwork is heavily inspired by "The Sleeping Nude" from Warren B. Davis

Reverie was created with Houdini, Octane, ZBrush, Substance Painter, and Photoshop. The production of this artwork started mid-February 2021 and was finished in early March 2021.

Reverie

Steadily nature around her is vanishing,  replaced by an artificial mockery of the
world she grew up in. She wonders how long she can hold on to herself after the inevitable blade of innovation cuts her bond forever.

Unremembered Bond

This is a commemorative token minted to celebrate the release of Digital Renaissance, first seen during Miami Art Week 2022 on 1-12-2022.



"Slowly we have separated ourselves from divinity, caused by the relentless progression of science and understanding of the natural world.

As lost souls in the digital world, we start looking for new unexplainable forces that might control our lives. Thunder became flash crashes, fertility seasons became rockets to the moon. New religions are born and heralded by their own meme's, rituals and faceless prophets."



The full artwork was initially offered for sale through the M1563 auction platform:

Medallion #2: Digital Renaissance 

The new path in front of her does not guarantee a life without regret or sorrow, but it will be her journey to take. She releases her grip on the heavy mantle that has always kept her safe. As it gives into it's own weight, the fabric cascades to the floor around her. She takes a step.

As death and life entwine around each other, it dawns on her that she is all she was made to be

Standing in eternity #2/3

Stephan Duquesnoy Medallions

Foundation

The allure of eternity beckoned him, drawing him into her tender embrace. It seemed so effortless—the act of plucking the petals from the flower she presented would bind him to her for all time.

With each petal he delicately plucked, an inexplicable bond to the garden surged within him. Beneath his feet, ancient roots embraced him with a warm and everlasting affection. The sensation crept from his soles to his very core, weaving a tapestry of eternal love within him.

As the last petal yielded to his touch, a profound transformation took hold. The earth itself embraced him, claiming him as one of its own. He desired the embrace, and to be forever entwined with the garden's essence. He became a living embodiment of its beauty, its secrets, and its eternal existence.
