    Exhibit Studio

    Eine surrealistische Fotocollage mit mehreren überlagerten Elementen und einem weißen Gitternetz. Im Zentrum steht ein weißer Plastikstuhl im Gartenstuhl-Stil auf einem beigen Betonboden. Der Boden zeigt eine große, unregelmäßige Risslinie. Im unteren Bildbereich erscheinen verschwommen bunte, kreisförmige Bokeh-Lichteffekte in Gelb, Türkis und Orange, die wie leuchtende Orbs wirken. Rechts im Bild befindet sich ein blaues, organisch geformtes Element, das an eine Pfütze oder abstrakte Form erinnert, mit einer auffälligen orangefarbenen Kontur. Links oben sind Teile einer transparenten oder reflektierenden Oberfläche sichtbar. Das gesamte Bild ist von einem feinen, geometrischen weißen Gitter überzogen, das der Komposition eine strukturierte, analytische Ebene verleiht. Die Atmosphäre wirkt wie eine künstlerische Auseinandersetzung mit Raum, Schatten und fragmentierter Realität.
