In ESSENTIA III, the process once again unites the digital and the pictorial.
Artificial intelligence generates an idealized architectural space that I then manually alter using acrylic, airbrush, and oil paint. This dialogue between technology and human gesture constitutes the essence of the series: a search for balance between the mechanical and the sensory.
The scene depicts a white, enclosed building next to a swimming pool, an environment that appears serene and under absolute control. However, the absence of human figures and the tension between the structure and the water introduce a fissure in the perfection: the essential emerges precisely in that crack where the ideal breaks down.
Water, the central element, oscillates between a symbol of luxury and a vital necessity. In this ambiguity, the work becomes a visual reflection on the limits of posthuman architecture—an aesthetic that pursues total control of the environment—versus the vulnerability of human habitation.
