Emerald Flux after Klimt

Emerald Flux after Klimt revisits Gustav Klimt’s Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer II (1912) as a moving digital meditation. This artwork is not the product of algorithms trained on images, nor of automated AI style transfer. Every fragment of motion, every ripple of color, is the result of handwritten code — custom shaders and mathematical fields crafted line by line by the artist. Each frame exists because a specific instruction was designed, tested, and refined, forming a unique digital handwriting.

The portrait itself dissolves into emerald and golden currents, flowing like a river of memory. Klimt’s ornamental surface is no longer still but animated into a continuous flux, where figure and pattern merge and separate in a slow, poetic rhythm. The work becomes a meditation on impermanence: Adele’s presence seems both eternal and fragile, rising and dispersing in waves of light.

By refusing AI shortcuts, Emerald Flux affirms a philosophy of authorship and intentionality. What you see is not machine-generated, but a personal language of code that extends Klimt’s vision into the realm of time and movement. This is digital craft in its purest sense — a contemporary homage to the Vienna Secession created with care, precision, and human imagination.

Format: 4K UHD (3840×2160), 60 fps seamless loop. Created 2025.
