"The Decadent Idol Cathedral of Angels" by Virtu More

"A jet-black triptych altarpiece that condenses the design language of heavy Gothic architecture. At the center sits an angel relief with a serene expression; by opening the doors on either side, a hidden sanctuary—never spoken of—reveals itself.

This work was created with the themes of “decaying beauty” and “sacred stillness.” Like an altar left behind in ruins over long years, it bears a soot-darkened texture and intricate ornamentation. Though decadent in nature, it evokes a subtle sense of salvation, embodying a dark fantasy world." — Virtu More
