About the artwork

"Tiles of the Forgotten Citadel" is an intricate mosaic of secrets and memories, capturing fragments of a lost civilisation in luminous stone and sacred geometry. Each panel depicts a different corner of a sprawling, sun-drenched fortress whose ornate tiles reveal secrets about rituals, corridors and powers that have long since become myth.

Snapshot of lore:
In the upper cliffs of Ka'tur, where the winds still hum ancient chants, lies a forgotten citadel sculpted from light and shadow. These tiles once marked sacred paths that were only travelled by priest-kings and oracles. The fragments uncovered by the dimensional shift speak through patterns - some maps, some spells, some warnings.

Artistic features:
Golden and charcoal-coloured palette: a two-tone elegance of matte gold and deep slate blue evokes age and divine contrasts.
Geometric narratives: Each panel presents its own design - from lotus glyphs to infinity spirals - inviting the viewer to decipher hidden meanings.
Architectural depth: turrets, staircases and winding corridors merge with a surreal sky, blending natural elevations with design intent.
Sacred asymmetry: No two tiles are perfectly lined up, a deliberate sign of anti-perfectionism that is revered in Ka'tur's design theology.

Why collectors want this:
A rich collectible, ideal for interactive lore or virtual environment design
Offers nine interconnected story nodes, each tile a standalone portal
