In "Impossible Atmospheres" you will be taken to an ethereal, unreal and incredible world, where you will witness a vibrant concert of shapes and colors, in the midst of which light dances, moves and flows freely through all the works. This Collection gives you the chance to see the world of dreams without being asleep, to go to space without leaving the earth and to enjoy the most varied bursts of light.
The works in this Collection are characterized by flashes of light that bathe the shapes and make the colors shine.
Some of these works express a disturbing and dynamic frenetic glow that highlights the flashes of yellow and cyan colors, as if they were flashes of neon and gold, or as if it were a star emitting energy with all its might to draw the viewer's attention and summon him to witness the work.
On the other hand, the viewer will also come across works where the light has a dimmer glow, timidly and harmonically defining the shapes that make up the work.
Creating both ethereal and spatial atmospheres, where the colors yellow, orange, blue and purple play a leading role, and where the viewer can feel the calm, serenity and silence of the light contrasts.
Similarly, the viewer will be able to enter and enjoy other atmospheres developed in styles other than those already presented, but in any case wrapped in this ethereal glow where light plays freely with shapes while drawing them. The entire Collection comprises 7 different types of Atmospheres, each of which is represented in a different art style:

This Collection comprises 52 pieces, each of which will be minted as NFTs on the Harmony One Blockchain, to fulfill this purpose I have chosen Gems Town as the NFT Market where the entire collection will be published; likewise "Impossible Atmospheres" will be my debut Collection on this platform. Of each of these pieces there will only be a single edition available and they will only be sold as NFTs; therefore, they will not be made available to other art markets and whoever owns the token corresponding to each piece will be its sole owner.
Having developed this collection is a very important step in my artistic journey, because I have conceived it with great maturity and have managed to organize my ideas more efficiently to present them in a more orderly manner and under a series of related concepts; the viewer this time is going to find a series of works closely linked to each other under the same concept and a series of similar techniques. In the past I have let my restless mind flow as it pleases; Now, thanks to the experience I have gained, I have been able to tame it to conceive my ideas in a much more selective way.
The Creative Process:
Step 1: Photography
Step 2: Filter Application
Step 3: Glow
Step 4: Retouch
As in Visual Universe, the basis of my works are my own photographs, to choose what or who to photograph I simply let myself be carried away by my inspiration; therefore you will see that these atmospheres are carried out by varied subjects such as cats, plants, fruits and flowers, as well as everything that allowed me to create a galactic, spectral and unreal environment. Those who already know me and have seen other of my works, know that I like to take objects or beings from reality (that's why I use photography as a base) and transform them to return them under an unreal look that at the same time preserves clues of reality to which that being or that object belongs.
The creation of all these works took place entirely on my phone, and for some time now I have taken more and more seriously exploring and exploiting the artistic possibilities that a smartphone can offer. My phone is a Xiaomi Redmi 9T and I had previously used it to take photographs and create several of my works, I also used several applications that I had already had the opportunity to try and learn about beforehand for the application of filters and retouching of the images.
First I take the photograph of any object or being that has inspired me.
2. Then I take that photo to "Picturize It", an app that has a very interesting range of filters and that is why it was chosen by me to bring these Impossible Atmospheres to life. There I select the most convenient filter for the image and evaluate whether the result satisfies me or not, to determine its inclusion in the collection.
3. When I apply the filters in Picturize It the image is a bit opaque, so I take them to "Glitch Lab", apply their excellent glow filter, and adjust its intensity and dispersion according to the case of each image; To do this, I determine which settings suit each work best.
Finally, I process the images in "PicsKit", one of my favorite apps for a long time. PicsKit is excellent for applying retouchs to the image and the range of adjustments it allows you is quite wide; using it leaves me as satisfied as Photoshop and in the past I have used it to create works that make me as proud as The Eye in the Storm, War Cat, Thunder Goku y A Clockwork Cat.
In PicsKit I adjust the contrast of the images and in some cases I increase the glow (as appropriate for each work), I also adjust the brightness and saturation of the colors; which is one of the fundamental pillars of this collection, since these manual and selective adjustments of the tones of the different colors that make up the work (especially the yellow, orange, cyan and purple tones) are what allow me to control the atmosphere that surrounds each of the works.
