this painting started as a way to process it. the world burning in the background. me, unbothered, in my little corner with cassian and nesta and all their chaos. somehow their fictional pain makes mine feel smaller.

art and reading aren't escapism to me. they're how i stay sane. they're how i stay human.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Most of you preferred cinematic elegance, but I personally liked both directions, so I combined cinematic elegance with dark tension to explore how they work together in this piece. This is more of an experimental cut, so the final polish and quality weren’t the focus yet.

I'm about to launch the new version of my portfolio made with Claude Code and Figma. I'm more than excited with the result. I could say that after more than a decade working as a designer, this has been the most exciting portfolio-building experience. Why? I always struggle to get a result that I feel connected to. Here I could experiment and play with a collage! something that I wanted to do a long time ago, but I didn't know how to actually make it. Sharing the new version soon! 🎉

Lumina Venit

A path, a light, a walk towards what awaits. Lumina_Venit is born from the ashes of what was lost, painted with the certainty that every step matters.
