Hallucinating
2021
Trapped within an underground tunnel, the astronaut grapples with vivid hallucinations of enormous waves, an illusion induced by a malfunctioning life suit. These phantom waters, once the essence of life but now extinct, form a stark juxtaposition with the arid reality of the outside world. The serene greens and turbulent waves of the hallucinated water offer a striking visual contrast to the stifling, barren desert world. This surreal atmosphere lends the scene an unnerving tranquility, amplifying the protagonist's isolation and desperation. "Hallucinating" weaves a narrative of human struggle against isolation and the impending threat of oblivion. It reflects on our innate tendency towards escapism and our remarkable capacity for survival. This piece delves into the fragile intersection of perception and reality, portraying a profound narrative of longing, resilience, and the transient nature of time.
