It looks like anexplosion, but if you look a little further it looks more like something of a star. And yes starting point is a poinsettia, but based on a Koch Snowflake fractal in a colourpotloot style.
Sometimes you sit behind your screen on an early dark soaking wet evening in late November, reading nothing but misery or the most nonsense on your social media screen, your brain quickly starts thinking of an alternative. So something with a fractal (have many) so, the Christmas tree next to me glitters with its LED lights, and a star comes to mind.
A fractal can in fact create a lot of different atmospheres, it depends on the colour balance and the environment in which the piece will be hung, not to mention what atmosphere the buyer himself adds.
In this work, the cool colour dominates the warmth, and if I link this to the time when this image was created of violence, unrest and contradictions around the world, it could be a sign to go against this.
Is this the original image as made with Ai-art, it has been edited by me, through colour balance, brightness, sharpness, noise reduction and hdr. in Affinity Photo editing software, which is my darkroom and drawing board.
