Desert of Shadows

January 15, 2025

A twelve-piece minimalist 3D collection built in Blender, focused on stark beauty and controlled abstraction. Using a restrained palette of black, red, and muted gray, each image studies form and light across sculpted dunes. The recurring red sphere serves as a quiet anchor — a symbol of life within a dry digital void.
