Refractions #422

Each Refractions token is composed as a high-end still-life photograph: a controlled studio setup where light passes through a chosen material — a glass, a prism, a lens, a crystal, a shallow pool, a film — and paints complex refraction and caustic patterns onto the scene.

Materials range from clear glassware and optical blocks to cut crystal, gemstones, soap bubbles, droplets on glass and thin films. Light might be a single tight beam, a soft diffuse panel, coloured LEDs or direct sunlight.

The results include warped backgrounds, spectral rainbows, sharp caustic streaks, overlapping refraction fields and micro-details that reward close viewing. Everything remains physically plausible; nothing is surreal or cartoonish.

Icon

Icon #6
Icon #16
Icon #1
Icon #7

Icon is a body of work about symbols — how colour and form can carry meaning without words.

Each piece feels like a sign encountered rather than explained: bold shapes held in balance, strong colours standing with confidence, moments that register instantly and remain quietly present.

Across the collection, love appears sparingly, like a signal sent with intention — changing the feeling of the image without overwhelming it.

Glitch

Glitch #23
Glitch #59
Glitch #91
Glitch #11

Glitch is a chronicle of generative destruction — a moment where order dissolves and creation is forced to rewrite itself.
Each image captures the instant a system breaks open, revealing the raw mechanics of collapse: torn planes, corrupted colour,
fractured geometry and unstable architectures dragged through the turbulence of a failing render.

This is not destruction as decay, but destruction as generation: new forms born through rupture, error and computational stress.
Glitch is the story of a machine unmaking itself — and in doing so, discovering unexpected beauty in the wreckage.

Dust

Dust #60
Dust #42
Dust #15
Dust #55

Dust is a study in chalk, pigment and breath — abstract forms arranged like quiet mathematics.

Circles, lines and woven geometries drift across soft paper textures, fading at the edges as if they were drawn and erased a hundred times before settling into their final shape. Some pieces feel like blueprints, others like constellations or half-remembered maps, but all of them carry the same powdered calm: the hush of chalk hanging in the air.
