Grand Sante
As Part of the Digital Heritage Curation:
Take a journey back in time with GlitchOfMind where he pays tribute to his great-grandmother's legacy through his art. Glitch grew up in a family of women who were devoted to finding natural remedies for their ailments, including the Afro-Caribbean spirituality belief system that was often demonized in favor of the enforce Christianity beliefs.
Composition:
The artwork is a composition of 3D, VR sculpting, photography, STABLE Diffusion (AI), and post-processing in Photoshop and Lightroom. The main scene was created using 3D elements and VR sculpting, while the texture of the character's costume was created on Stable Diffusion and later converted into 3D materials to be applied.
The pose of the character was inspired by the French painting, "La Méditation" by Anatole Vely, adding a touch of classical art to this vibrant and modern piece. The scenic backdrop is a photograph taken by GlitchOfMind in the Dominican Republic, his homeland, during one of his journeys back to his roots.
Through this beautiful and elaborate piece, GlitchOfMind honors his family's traditions while exploring his heritage. This artwork not only showcases his talent and creativity but also a love letter to his Afro-Caribbean heritage.
