Refractions · Token Detail
Refractions #541
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 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.
Caustic
Caustic is a study in purity under assault. Minimal geometric forms — circles, squares, bars, planes — placed against soft neutral fields. Perfect shapes eroded by chemical light, corroded edges, pigment burn, structural decay, and caustic dissolution.
Every token is a meditation on tension: order versus breakdown, geometry versus entropy, serenity versus corrosion. A single shape becomes a battlefield for chemical destruction.
Dust
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.
