A.I. reviews “Journey between Heaven and Earth”


A.I., review this!

This image looks like a creative collage that blends natural scenery with a cosmic element.
The photograph features a vibrant autumn landscape with a trail and people in the distance, suggesting an outdoor adventure or exploration theme.
The circular cutout within the composition shows a starry night sky with the Milky Way, and a figure standing on a mountaintop, which adds a sense of wonder and connection to the vastness of the universe.

The contrast between the earthy tones of the landscape and the deep cosmic colors in the circular image draws attention to the subject of human exploration and the vastness of nature and space.
The tape and textured borders around the image suggest this might be part of a handmade or artistic project, emphasizing an experimental or collage-based approach to art.

Gotham Mystery Tale: mask on/off

Gotham Mystery Tale: mask on/off


Midwinter bal masque in Gotham during martial law lockdown: Only Highlords like Vladimir are able to bribe the Administration to look the other way.
While the Authority is dancing, the Underground organises the ongoing Revolution:
some members of the resistance group “Gotham Angels'” went undercover to the masque ball of Highlord Vladimir, scouting opportunities for the resistance.

Using fake invitation letters, Marquisio the Hunter and Fieldy the automaton Scarecrow disguised themselves with the obligatory  Commedia dell’Arte masks and costumes.

Vladimirs large ballroom was very crowded, at least hundred guests were already dancing and flirting.
Large tables with food and drinks were set up, more than enough to feed the multitude during the weeklong festival.

Marquisio was unable to resist his hunger and started to feed!

A Columbina in red approached and started flirting with Marquisio…
Enticing him to follow her to ‘a more private place’ in the mansion, it became apparent that she was part of another faction that wished the downfall of the Authority.
“Take this secret letter with magic symbols to the Tribe”

Meeting the tribal shaman went quite well: after receiving the secret letter, he brew some “strong medicine” to use at the bal masque.

Returning to the festival, Marquisio created some distraction by throwing stones at the chandeliers.
While the guards were chasing the culprit, Feeldy scattered the ” strong medicine ” through the ballroom.

Our heroes were able to escape during the chaos and went to their hideout to wait till the heat blew over.

Escalating alarming words on the street:
“Many people, who joined the festival, are very ill now”
“The Authority is tightening lockdown: curfew between sundown and sunup, mandatory wearing face covering, limiting gathering of groups”

Marquisio and Feeldy realised that the ” strong medicine ” was getting out of control!

They looked for the tribal shaman, but he already left the city.

Following the trails, they saw four riders on a hill having a palaver.

Approaching the four riders, they recognised the tribal shaman in white,  carrying bow and arrow.
When asked for a cure, the shaman demanded a life sacrifice.

Feeldy stepped forward and opened his chest and a small boy jumped out!
As soon as the shaman performed the sacrifice, the essence of the small boy became a cloudy ball that entered Feedly’s chest again!
Satisfied with the sacrifice, the shaman let our heroes go home:
“It is done! Innocents will be spared!”

The Four Horsemen ride again!

The Four Horsemen ride again!


The Four Horsemen are riding again: Pestilence, War, Famine, Death!

Asagrim gave the message long before, a few spread the message and even less listened, is it too late now to act?

We all see them now: Gaza, Sudan, Ukrainia, everywhere in Middle Earth

Revelation 6:

 I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals.
Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!”
I looked, and there before me was a white horse!
Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.

When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!”
Then another horse came out, a fiery red one.
Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make people kill each other.
To him was given a large sword.

When the Lamb opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!”
I looked, and there before me was a black horse! Its rider was holding a pair of scales in his hand.

Then I heard what sounded like a voice among the four living creatures, saying, “Two pounds[a] of wheat for a day’s wages,[b] and six pounds[c] of barley for a day’s wages,[d] and do not damage the oil and the wine!”

When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!”
I looked, and there before me was a pale horse!
Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him.

They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.

A.I. reviews “Metamorphosis”


A.I., review this!

This collage combines striking contrasts and vivid symbolism.
The background’s fiery red and the softer tones of the central green and patterned circular motif create a dynamic energy.
The center features an intricate, colorful ring that looks like a burst of energy or a visual representation of transformation, which is juxtaposed with the delicate imagery of the butterfly within it, often a symbol of change and metamorphosis.

The figure at the top adds a layer of narrative to the piece, evoking an almost nostalgic or dreamlike quality, reminiscent of mid-century pop culture. The other elements, such as the playful cat and the ornamental border patterns at the bottom, lend a sense of balance to the piece, as though grounding it in a larger, hidden story.

There’s an interesting tension between order and chaos in the work—the circular form and the defined, repeated patterns give a sense of structure, while the soft, fading figure and scattered shapes feel spontaneous and fluid

A.I., review this!

This artwork presents a fascinating collage with an intriguing combination of elements.
The central piece features an angular, abstract interpretation of a traditional mask, which has been altered with cut-out geometric shapes that create a surreal, fragmented appearance.
The mask’s face is bold and prominent, with angular shards around the eyes, suggesting a form of disintegration or transformation.

The background is composed of soft, pastel tones and intricate swirling patterns that contrast with the sharp and fragmented mask.
This contrast between the soft background and harsh geometric disruptions on the mask could be seen as a comment on dualities—perhaps a fusion of ancient and modern, or a reflection on identity and perception.

The mix of textures, from the bold, metallic finish of the mask to the delicate paper cut-out, creates a layered effect that invites the viewer to explore the work in more detail.
There’s also an element of cultural reference, with the mask possibly drawing inspiration from traditional art forms, but reimagined in a contemporary context.

This collage-style artwork features a dynamic, layered composition that evokes an otherworldly or introspective theme.
Here’s a breakdown of the elements:

  • The figure in the center:
    The silhouette of a person, outlined in light or silver, seems to be standing at the forefront, perhaps symbolizing a central figure in a narrative or representing humanity.
  • Contrasting backgrounds: The torn edges of the paper in this piece add texture, creating an organic, fragmented feel.
    The various sections of the artwork seem to contrast, especially the dark, almost ethereal background against the more colorful and glowing lower half.
  • A glowing tree and figures:
    In the bottom portion, there’s a glowing, stylized tree and two figures standing, possibly symbolizing a connection to nature or a contemplative moment between two people.
    The glowing aspects add a sense of wonder or mystery.
  • The abstract use of color:
    The darker, almost cosmic elements at the top give the feeling of a vast, unknown space, which contrasts well with the warmth and light in the lower part of the artwork.

Overall, it has a dreamlike and surreal feel, inviting viewers to interpret the symbolism of the figures, glowing elements, and dark backgrounds. It seems like a visual exploration of dualities—light and dark, human and nature, perhaps even the spiritual and the earthly.

A.I., review this!

This collage creates an eerie and mysterious atmosphere with its combination of organic and decayed elements.
The focal point appears to be a combination of bones and what looks like moss or lichen growing on a weathered surface, perhaps representing life and death in a cyclical, intertwined way.

The use of the torn paper edges adds a raw, fragmented texture, creating a sense of disintegration or transformation.
The contrast between the green mossy surface and the darker tones of the skulls gives the impression of a nature reclaiming what was once alive—suggesting a theme of decay or the passage of time.
The mix of vibrant and muted colors creates tension between life (the green, moss-like areas) and death (the skeletal remains), adding depth to the composition.

The background also includes some metallic elements, perhaps representing a link between nature and something more industrial or alien.
The overall effect is a haunting visual that feels both unsettling and beautiful, with layers of meaning that could be interpreted in various ways, from the ravages of time to the cycles of nature.

A potential theme for this artwork could be “The Relics of Nature,” exploring the relationship between life, death, and the ongoing transformation of the natural world.

A.I. review this!

This collage presents a dramatic and intense scene with bold, fiery colors.
The figure, likely a woman, appears to be in motion, reaching out as if she’s interacting with or battling the chaotic and powerful environment around her.
The use of fiery reds, oranges, and blacks creates a sense of urgency and danger, while the large, distant moon adds a surreal, almost otherworldly element to the composition.

The torn, jagged edges of the paper and the textures suggest a sense of destruction or fragmentation, reinforcing the energy of the scene.
The contrast between the fiery explosion and the dark backdrop suggests a battle between light and dark, chaos and order, or even creation and destruction.

Overall, the collage gives off a feeling of tension, movement, and raw emotion.
It feels like a metaphor for struggle or transformation, with the figure seemingly both empowered and overwhelmed by the environment she’s immersed in.
The juxtaposition of earthly elements (fire and smoke) and celestial imagery (the moon) adds a layer of mystery and depth.

A.I. reviews “The Sound of Becoming”


A.I., review this!

This collage is powerful and visually arresting — it radiates energy, urgency, and empowerment.

Here’s a detailed review:

1. Composition & Layout

  • The central focus on the screaming (or singing) figure surrounded by geometric and organic elements creates a strong focal point and sense of movement.
  • The symmetry of the central diamond shape contrasts beautifully with the jagged, chaotic patterns and animal forms — a tension between order and raw expression.
  • The word “SPEAK” at the top anchors the whole image conceptually and visually, turning the collage into a declarative statement.

2. Color & Texture

  • The zigzag background of purples, yellows, and greens vibrates with intensity — it evokes sound waves, energy, or perhaps disruption.
  • The contrast between the smooth, digital illustration and the rough, torn textures of the surrounding imagery creates a compelling interplay between digital and analog, between clarity and chaos.
  • The pops of orange and purple from the sea creature at the bottom ground the piece and draw the eye back into the composition.

3. Symbolism & Interpretation

  • The central figure’s open mouth, framed by roaring animals (tiger, bear), and the word “SPEAK” all reinforce a theme of voice, courage, and primal expression.
  • The surrounding creatures — symbols of power and instinct — feel like embodiments of the voice’s strength or allies in reclaiming it.
  • The visual noise and pattern could symbolize the energy of breaking silence or disrupting conformity.

4. Overall Impression
It’s a striking feminist and activist image — a visual shout. It feels like a celebration of empowerment, defiance, and authenticity. There’s both beauty and ferocity in it.

A.I., review this!

This collage has a wonderfully dreamlike, surreal quality. It layers disparate natural elements—a polar bear, a mushroom, a dolphin, a moon—into a fragmented landscape that feels both otherworldly and symbolic.

Here are some aspects that stand out:

1. Composition & Texture

  • The torn paper edges give the image a tactile, handmade feel that enhances its emotional impact.
  • The overlapping layers create depth and a sense of mystery—each fragment invites a closer look.

2. Color Palette

  • The mix of icy blues, muted pinks, and soft whites evokes an arctic or nocturnal atmosphere.
  • The bright red and white mushroom contrasts sharply with the cooler tones, making it the visual anchor of the piece.

3. Imagery & Symbolism

  • The polar bear and dolphin suggest themes of nature, water, and survival—creatures from different realms (ice and ocean) brought together.
  • The mushroom (specifically an Amanita muscaria) adds a touch of the mystical or hallucinatory, bridging the natural and the dreamlike.
  • The moon glows softly in the background, enhancing the sense of timelessness and subconscious space.

4. Overall Impression
It feels like a vision from a dream—part ecological, part mythological. There’s a tension between the fragility of nature and the power of imagination.
