Prompt:
"A dystopian and dark illustration with a heavy metal aesthetic on a black background. The composition is layered into three levels:
Lower Level: Faceless humanoid figures walking hunched over on a massive conveyor belt or gear system. They are chained by their hands and necks, symbolizing enslavement. Beneath them, rats are running through a shadowy maze, adding to the oppressive tone. The figures and rats appear trapped in a mechanical, industrial environment with worn textures.
Middle Level: A massive, glowing, menacing eye floats in the center of the composition, dominating the scene. The eye emits a threatening red glow, with long cables and circuits extending outward, connecting to floating monitors. The monitors display cryptic and oppressive symbols, such as a barcode, clocks, and silhouettes of people in cages. Surveillance towers flank the sides, projecting sharp, bright beams of light downward, enhancing the sense of control.
Upper Level: A lone humanoid figure stands in the center, breaking chains attached to its body. The figure is surrounded by a burst of jagged, radiant light cracks or energy, symbolizing awakening and rebellion. Around the figure, fragments of the oppressive system, like broken chains, gears, and screens, are shattering and falling apart.
Atmosphere and Style: Dark and dystopian with textures resembling worn metal and decay. The color palette includes black, gray, metallic tones, and highlights of red and pale yellow for emphasis. The overall style is sharp, gritty, and detailed, with a focus on a dramatic and rebellious tone."
