The Clockwork Menagerie
Visual Description: Gothic arches in gold and shadow dominate the bottom of the composition, surrounded by mechanical elements: gears, clock parts, swirling greens and yellows. In the right corner, a golden Venetian mask gazes out, its expression serene and knowing. The piece feels like a steampunk dream, a mechanical ecosystem, a place where nature and technology have merged, the architecture both sacred and industrial.
