"Obsidian +003" radiates the deep, cosmic stillness of a celestial artifact, as if excavated from the void between stars. The black, textured expanse glimmers with mica-like constellations, while the domed resin orb at the center resembles either a preserved droplet of time or a magnified singularity. Gold flakes drift through the darkness like remnants of stardust or shattered myth. The palette—dominated by midnight black, interstellar purples, electric blues, and teal iridescence—anchors the work in a metaphysical realm. There's a clear visual and thematic connection to Obsidian +004, with both capturing the liminal space between creation and destruction, motion and stillness.
