This style produces images with a liquid metallic sheen, as if subjects were dipped in mercury and then flash-frozen. Colors tend toward silver, deep teal, and pale violet with surfaces reflecting imaginary light sources. The aesthetic creates an otherworldly stillness, combining organic forms with an unsettling artificial smoothness.
