Description:
“Echo in a Bottle” transforms a humble Coca-Cola bottle into a vessel of haunting humanity. Through bold acrylic strokes, ArNoUx etches the spectral presence of a face directly onto glass, evoking the trapped voice of the marginalized or forgotten. The distortion of the figure along the curved surface echoes the psychological unease typical of German Expressionism. Raw, layered textures in muted creams and dark shadows invite the viewer to reflect on identity, consumption, and transformation—where even the discarded is reborn as sacred.
