Refractions · Token Detail
Refractions #545
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.

Chairs
Chairs is a study in sculptural absurdity: a museum-grade exploration of chairs that push beyond functional design into expressive, impractical, and architecturally playful form.
Each work is a hyper‑photorealistic portrait of a chair behaving more like a sculpture: a seat that bends too far, loops into itself, contradicts its own engineering, or performs gestures no practical furniture would ever attempt.
The result is a collection where fine‑art photography meets conceptual design, blurring the boundary between object, artwork, and architectural experiment.
Trace
Trace is a study of perception — a hybrid visual language where photographic fragments become architectural diagrams, and linework reveals the hidden structure inside the world.
Each artwork begins with real photographs: textures, objects, architectural details, or natural fragments. These images are arranged as intentional collages — quiet, asymmetric, evocative. Over them, precise linework unfolds: topographic contours, orthographic projections, and geometric extrapolations that reinterpret the photograph’s form.
Trace sits between blueprint and sketchbook, between fine-art print and architectural analysis. It is a dialogue between what is seen and what is understood.
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.
