This is a landscape of light and atmospheres. This artwork is made to be seen in its whole and then be looked at for its finest details. The emotional charge varies from one scale to the other, which brings the observer to a second level of interpretation that is sometimes paradoxical.

This artwork is completely described by a mathematical system. The fragmented glass texture is made from my new Generalized Oscillating Mandelbrot Set formula. It is a multi-layered composition of deep magnifications of remarkable, beautiful and unstable chaotic sections. Coloring algorithms use an exponentially convergent method to refer to my color tables.
