15 days ago Jeremy Mann + John Singer Sargent + Pino Daeni, where Mann's vertical streaking and textured atmospheric layering should create the weathered golden background, Sargent's confident brushwork and fabric virtuosity should render the flowing multi-paneled skirt, and Daeni's luminous romantic quality should inform the soft glamorous lighting. The fusion should manifest as painterly realism with impressionistic environmental abstraction. The magician is a handsome young Asian man with short black hair and a mustache, dressed in a black tuxedo and top hat. He performs a card trick, holding a deck of cards. In his other hand, he holds up the queen of hearts, while other cards float in the center of the stage: a club, the ace of spades, and the queen of spades seem to float above the table and chairs. On stage, the curtains, the lights, and the atmosphere evoke an old Western, surrealism, and horror. Scene set in an abstract interior space during golden hour, with weathered textured walls featuring vertical streaks in warm ochre, burnt umber and golden tones suggesting aged plaster, soft diffused backlighting creating a luminous halo effect around the subject, atmospheric depth with painterly brushwork blending realistic portraiture with impressionistic environmental treatment, dusty light particles suspended in air. hb6e22d44c224 0 12
