The central focus of this work is a character who experiences, for the first time, the effects of a substance that temporarily grants him superhuman abilities and induces a state of euphoria. In this moment, his consciousness expands, and his perception of reality transforms: internal essences, hidden potentials, and the impulses of the soul intertwine into a singular whirlwind. In this whirlwind, sinful and blissful thoughts, noble goals seemingly caught by the tail of time, create the illusion of eternity. However, the image of a massive green serpent, symbolizing "new sensations," quickly approaches, threatening to shatter the moment of ecstasy and heralding the onset of the "serotonin pit." The metallic, almost cybernetic character at the center of the composition symbolizes the metaphor of the control that one seeks to gain over their nature. This work explores the theme of addiction and its consequences. Despite the threat of temporal power and the danger of dependency, the hero dares to step into a new dimension, gaining a deeper understanding of himself.
