Apocalypse

By Larain Briggs 2023
The artwork 'Apocalypse' presents a multi-layered exploration of meaning through the digital manipulation of Sebastian Ricci's Baroque painting, 'The Resurrection' (1716). The image represents an introspective journey triggered by an existential crisis and explores the transformation of the self through trauma. Initiated by Jung's concept of the archetype of the apocalypse, my research has developed into an investigation into the meta-crisis and digital sublime.
