About this artwork: “Glasshouse II” is a conceptual pop surreal digital artwork depicting the portrait of a doll-like face encased in a glass jar. The doll appears motionless, with an empty, vacant gaze, enhancing the haunting quality of the piece. A bramble emerges from within the jar, breaking through its surface and breaking a hole into the glass. Two blue flowers bloom along the bramble, echoing the eerie blue of the doll’s eyes. A brown butterfly approaches the flowers. The jar rests on a golden stand, which appears to be standing on still water.

The scene is dominated by a low-key, muted gray color palette, only interrupted by the blue flowers and the doll’s eyes. The theme of this lowbrow pop surrealism artwork sets a somber, introspective mood, exploring concepts of fragility, entrapment, and isolation. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet desolation, enhanced by the melancholic tones.

The doll-like figure, enclosed within the glass jar, conveys a sense of being trapped, as if she is an object to be preserved or displayed. Her motionless state and vacant expression suggest emotional numbness and detachment, reflecting the idea of being cut off from the outside world. The glass jar, despite being only a delicate, transparent barrier, restricts her ability to interact with life outside.

The bramble growing through the jar and breaking it apart hints at the inevitable force of nature that disrupts this containment. It symbolizes the power of life and change, which cannot be held back, even by artificial boundaries. The bramble’s growth breaks the jar, shattering the illusion of control and revealing the vulnerability of what’s inside.

The glass jars used for this series are available as a Photoshop resource that can be purchased and used to make your own photo manipulations.

About the artist: AngieG. is a digital artist and photographer. For her unique digital art, AngieG. takes photos of herself and uses them to create one-of-a-kind photo manipulations with great emotional depth and meaning. AngieG.’s art always has a touch of the macabre, perfectly merging the beautiful and bizarre into her signature lowbrow pop surrealism art style. Unsettling and mesmerizing at the same time, her contemporary conceptual art derives its power from balancing rational vision with the magic of dreams and the unconscious, finding beauty in the unexpected and uncanny.

By purchasing a copy of this artwork, you can be sure to get an original handmade piece of art crafted by a real human artist with ♥︎. 

Because every artwork begins with the artist herself. For each of her works, AngieG. starts with a self-taken photograph of the artist herself. This may be a face shot, a photo of her lips (for her lip art), an intimate portrait, and other scenes and elements based on a vision she has for the final piece. This all involves a deep level of personal creativity, intention, and emotional connection.

Using digital tools like Photoshop or Procreate, she combines textures, colors, and elements over the photograph, transforming it into something more abstract and symbolic. She might enhance certain details to evoke a particular mood, or even merge multiple photos to tell a new story. Every stroke, adjustment, and filter is applied with careful deliberation. The photo begins to transform—a sky becomes more surreal, figures become ethereal, elements are altered to evoke a specific emotion. The process is tactile and intuitive, driven by the artist’s experience and personal connection to the imagery.

The result is more than just a manipulated photo; it becomes a reflection of the artist’s inner world, layered with meaning and emotion. The viewer can sense the human touch through the imperfections and deliberate choices, knowing that each element is infused with the artist’s personal perspective and hands-on effort. Unlike AI-generated art, this piece carries the artist’s unique narrative and emotional journey, embedded in every pixel.

Each piece tells a story—one that only the artist herself can tell, through her choices, edits, and personal relationship to the medium. In this way, AngieG.’s unique handmade digital art remains an essential and evolving form of contemporary expression, blending the power of technology with the depth of human creativity.
