This project was an illustration study in atmosphere and visual storytelling, built around the idea of an ancient abandoned temple. I wanted to create a sense of mystery and awe by pairing two contrasting environments: the overgrown exterior, quiet and hidden in the jungle, and the interior chamber, where the glow of a torch reveals an ancient relic.

The goal was to balance narrative and mood through composition and lighting—inviting the viewer to imagine the story unfolding beyond the frame. Working digitally, I focused on texture, light, and contrast to emphasize both the weight of history in the ruins and the cinematic drama of discovery inside.
