This project that I made for a talented artist MAREO and this is his concept

The crack as a symbol of fracture and separation that opens a portal of invitation to the void and the unknown, essential for transformation and evolution.
The crack is also understood as the wound that we all carry inside, that door to vulnerability that should not be hidden, on the contrary, it is our portal of opportunity to fill with light and heal.


The tools I used are a Cinema 4D, a Redshift and After Effects.

MAREO work is an homage to nature, a fusion of landscape abstraction and spiritual exploration, encapsulating the dichotomy between "Matter" in the physical realm and "Light" in the quest for the ethereal and sacred.

I am interested in the strength of the topography and natural territory, conceived as an energy living mantle constantly moving; Epidermal stratification wrought by time, with a telluric language emerging, pressing, gravitating, revealing through the landscape.
My creative journey spans diverse scales and forces of nature inherent to the sublime of landscape. From the monumental presence of mountains that melt into the ocean, the convergence of ether and earth through lightnings,  rock formations to their gradual disintegration and fragmentation, down to the elemental unit—the stone itself.
The perception of matter as the condensation of light, its inherent process of transformation and energy expansion across the ages. This matter, over time, sheds its weight, releasing its density in pursuit of its luminous source.
The sublime of nature transmuted into a spiritual experience.
