Blue Vessel Collage
A dark blue vessel anchors the center of this layered still life, joined by a potted flowering plant, a vertical band of ochre, and speckled fields of white and turquoise. Ink on aluminium gives the surface a crisp, luminous character, while the collage construction sharpens the shifts between silhouette, texture, and color. The result feels graphic, playful, and slightly surreal.

Tom Barnea
Tom Barnea (sometimes operating under the artistic handle MAYAMOTEK) is a contemporary digital artist specializing in vibrant, hypnotic photopaintings that translate a heightened personal perception of color and light. Bypassing traditional digital aesthetics, computers, and generative AI, Tom executes her entire creative process exclusively on a smartphone. She treats her photographs as physical and raw materials, layering and filtering them dozens of times to pull a hidden spectrum of luminous neon coloring. The resulting landscapes distort reality, manifesting how she uniquely encounters it.
