  • Prompt: A highly symbolic and surreal digital painting, presented as a vertical diptych. The scene is split by a fractured mirror running down the center. **Left side:** A figure composed of cracked porcelain and delicate, translucent glass stands with head bowed, anxiously observing its reflection in the mirror. The reflection is severely distorted, blurred, and fragmented, portraying a weak and broken image. The left side is dominated by a cold, desaturated color palette: shades of pale blue, grey, and icy white, evoking a sense of melancholic surrealism. **Right side:** The same figure has passed through the shattered mirror, mid-way through a dramatic transformation into its true and powerful form. This form is composed of radiant light, solid gold, and intricate, luminous geometric patterns, emanating a strong sense of self-realization. The right side of the mirror is completely shattered, revealing a vibrant cosmic landscape instead of a reflection. This landscape is filled with swirling nebulae, distant stars, and celestial bodies in deep gold, fiery red, electric blue, and purple. The right side is rendered in a visionary art style, glowing with ethereal and volumetric light that radiates from the figure and the cosmic background. **Central Metaphor:** The mirror, fractured at the center, acts as the key metaphor, separating the two distinct states of existence. The transition from fragile, self-obsessed gaze on the left to powerful transcendence on the right is the narrative core of the work. **Overall style:** Phantasmagorical surrealism, rich symbolism, dramatic lighting, hyper-detailed, 8k, cinematic, in the style of Alex Grey and Zdzisław Beksiński. ```
