A luminous descent into the abyss.

Volcanic Cathedral captures the hidden dimension of Madeira—an underwater fissure where towering basalt walls frame a single, diver-lit path through the deep. Rendered in monochromatic teals and deep shadows, this vertical composition brings a profound sense of exploration and silence to Modern Bathrooms and Minimalist Offices.

From Lens to Code

Madeira is as vertical below the waves as it is above them. With Volcanic Cathedral, I wanted to reconstruct the sensation of neutral buoyancy within a geological fracture—suspension between the crushing dark and the distant surface light. By guiding the algorithm through the logic of chiaroscuro lighting and water density, I have created an image that is not just a dive scene, but a meditation on human scale against planetary forces.
