  • Prompt: Against a backdrop of desolation and abstraction, a weathered white marble statue of Abraham Lincoln dressed in his iconic suit sits in quiet ruin. Seated on a fractured stone chair, his form leans forward, hands pressed to his face in silent grief. The weight of time and lost ideals is evident in the worn textures of his figure, his once-imposing presence now eroded by history’s passage. Draped over his lap, the remnants of a tattered American stars and stripes flag cascade in faded reds, whites, and blues, its frayed edges blending into the muted horizon. Layers of mixed media collage add depth and intricacy, employing textured assemblage techniques reminiscent of Brian Viveros and Esao Andrews. Gold-veined kintsugi-like fractures run through his garments, laced with an oxidized copper patina, symbolizing both fragility and endurance. Behind him, an assemblage of iconic American buildings rises in fragmented forms, their faded outlines dissolving into the dreamlike haze of the distant skyline. The interplay of subtle bokeh effects and distressed textures amplifies the scene’s emotional weight, heightening the sense of detachment and disillusionment. Unframed and unrestricted, the composition pulses with vibrant yet somber hues, the dynamic interplay of light and shadow carving out a narrative of sorrow, resilience, and the impermanence of power.
