False Enlightenment

2026-05-05T18:13:39-04:00

This artifact is an aggressive deconstruction of the idea of progress. Within a flawless dome, an irony is trapped: a praying mantis frozen in a posture of prayer before a dead lightbulb, surrounded by sharp nails. This is not just jewelry; it is a frozen scream about how we were conditioned to worship artificial light and others' truths while our own instincts rusted.

As an artist, I transform this dome into an exclusion zone. The bulb here is a symbol of a false path that no longer provides warmth, and the mantis is a soul that realized the deception too late. The nails fix this collapse, preventing it from crumbling. The mantis was found already dead; I do not kill for art, I merely seal the truth about the death of old gods. This is a piece for those who have moved past survival and are ready for rebellion. For those who no longer wish to be a "pretty flower" and choose their own real, albeit thorny, truth.

Signature Method & Absolute Uniqueness:

Each piece is crafted using my proprietary "Innovative Resin Dome" technique.

My professional experience in this niche dates back to 2020.

The multi-stage manual polishing technique has been perfected to create an absolute lens effect.

I guarantee that every artifact is a one-of-a-kind creation.

I fundamentally do not create replicas because true rage cannot be copied.

This dome is the physical manifestation of my reclaimed magic after decades of silence.
