Tartarus
The artwork portrays Tartarus, the primordial titan of the abyss, as a figure consumed by his own vastness, embodying the torment of eternal confinement. His form stretches endlessly, fragmented and chaotic, as if he is both the abyss and its prisoner. In mythology, Tartarus is not only a place but a being, cast into the deepest depths of existence, where he endures the weight of divine punishment. The composition reflects this duality—his presence is immense yet fractured, surrounded by swirling shadows that seem to pull him further into isolation. The torment lies in his role as both the keeper and captive of the underworld’s darkest realm, a paradox of power and suffering that evokes the eternal struggle between chaos and order. The piece captures the haunting essence of Tartarus, leaving the viewer with a sense of awe and unease at the magnitude of his plight.
