Digital Fragments 418

Ethereal Solid

Digital Fragments 418 is part of the Ethereal Solid digital art series by Denis Leclerc. Like all works in this collection, it explores abstraction as a porous space. Light, form, and rhythm dissolve into each other. However, this piece feels different. It stands out with its dense textures and layered tension.

At first glance, the shapes look like rock, fabric, or even folded metal. But when you look closer, the image becomes harder to define. It feels layered, as if time had folded in on itself. As a result, Digital Fragments 418 shows a moment of pressure. Everything leans inward—yet nothing breaks.

Digital Fragments 418 and the Influence of Dazzle Camouflage

One of the most distinctive features of this Ethereal Solid Digital Artwork lies in the striped patterns running across the surface. These lines echo dazzle camouflage, a pattern used on warships during World War I. Instead of hiding ships, it confused the eye—making them harder to target.

In the same way, Digital Fragments 418 uses visual misdirection. It pulls the viewer in, then breaks their focus. Rather than offering a single focal point, the image creates shifting zones of rhythm and contrast. Like a dazzle ship, it turns distraction into a kind of strength.

Consequently, this mix of order and ambiguity defines the Ethereal Solid series. Leclerc builds each piece with clarity and care. Although the forms feel unpredictable, each line serves a purpose. Every texture plays a role in the emotional balance of the work.

Furthermore, the artist used high-resolution digital tools. He built the layers on iPad, working over time. Therefore, the result balances movement and structure—gesture and memory, all at once.

Available Formats

This artwork is available in three limited editions. It is part of the Unique Editions collection. All prints use Giclée technology on museum-grade Hahnemühle paper. Each edition includes a 1″ white border and is signed by hand.

Miniature Marvel – 12 × 15.0 in – 504 $

Monumental Piece – 36 × 45.01 in – 1924 $

In the end, each work in the Ethereal Solid series stands on its own. While they share a visual language, each one tells a different story. Digital Fragments 418 offers a quiet meditation on confusion—and how it can lead to clarity.

Digital Fragments 416

What is Digital Fragments 416?

Digital Fragments 416 is part of Denis Leclerc’s series Ethereal Solid. He created it in May 2025. This work marks a shift in his digital practice. He no longer dissolves reality into abstraction. Instead, he gives abstraction a form. It feels present and weighty.

This piece exists in two forms. One is a printed version. The other is a subtle animation. Each version lets the image breathe. Together, they reveal form, gesture, and emotion. As a result, the viewer sees something abstract yet grounded.

How Digital Fragments 416 Translates Gesture into Shape

The composition shows smooth curves in warm bronze, copper, and cream. These shapes suggest a human presence—a face, a shoulder, a gesture. Nothing is fully defined. The form stays in motion. It hovers between memory and matter.

Leclerc does not break the image apart. Instead, he lets the form hold. He utilizes the digital medium to bring something to light. He asks the viewer to think. What if emotion could take shape? Consequently, the viewer enters a space where presence and ambiguity coexist.

The Animated Layer of Digital Fragments 416

Light glides across the surface. Shapes stretch and fold. Movement is minimal but powerful. As a result, the image feels alive. It gently evolves.

The animation avoids narrative. It explains nothing. Instead, it invites the viewer to watch. A form emerges slowly. Even though the motion is subtle, its presence is strong. Ultimately, it turns stillness into rhythm. Therefore, the work offers a meditative experience.

Material Qualities of Digital Fragments 416 (Print Version)

Leclerc printed this work on Hahnemühle metallic paper. The work exists in three formats (See Below). The tall format adds tension. Even so, the metallic surface reflects light softly. It builds depth, even when nothing moves.

The print asserts its presence. Although the work is digital, it feels intimate and grounded. Its stillness gives it quiet strength. The metallic surface adds texture and warmth, making the image feel almost touchable. As a result, the piece engages the eye—and stirs the senses.

From Fragmentation to Presence: A New Direction

The Ethereal Solid series rethinks abstraction. It no longer escapes form. Instead, it returns to presence.

Past works broke form apart. This series holds it together. Digital Fragments 416 is one of many pieces where the abstract becomes visible. In this way, it affirms a new path. As such, it leads to future works. They may grow with more clarity. Moreover, this shift opens new ways to express digital feeling. Meanwhile, it keeps form in motion. It never stays static. It is always becoming.

Digital Fragments 412

Digital Fragments 412 – From the Ethereal Solid Series

Overview

Digital Fragments 412 is a digital artwork by Denis Leclerc. It is part of the ongoing Ethereal Solid series. This piece explores the shift from abstraction to something that feels more physical. It blends soft, sculptural shapes with digital energy. The image invites both visual attention and emotional reflection.

Instead of fading into pure abstraction, this piece gives shape to what feels invisible. It marks a new phase in Leclerc’s artistic path. As he moves forward, he works to reclaim form, texture, and presence through digital media. The Ethereal Solid series suggests that digital gestures can carry memory, emotion, and even a trace of the body. As a result, the series joins stillness with depth and abstraction with weight.

Visual Composition in Digital Fragments 412

Digital Fragments 412 is one of the most vivid pieces in the series. The artwork brings together smooth, muscular shapes. These curves hint at limbs, torsos, or folds. Pressed together, they suggest tension, closeness, or comfort. Furthermore, warm tones like copper, rose, and ochre add to this impression of a body.

Yet nothing in the image is clear-cut. The forms avoid easy meaning. They show emotion without a face. They suggest touch without skin. This gives the piece both mystery and softness. In addition, the image also has visual weight. Each shape feels heavy, but soft. As light moves across the surface, the illusion of skin or fabric begins to form. The result is a surface that feels nearly alive. It is not a human figure, but it feels close to one.

Why Collect Digital Fragments 412?

You may be drawn to its quiet beauty or its emotional pull. Digital Fragments 412 is more than just a digital image. It brings presence into your space. It is calm, sculptural, and full of life. At the same time, it stays open to your interpretation. As a result, it speaks to every viewer in a different way. If you love art that is abstract but still intimate, this piece may stay with you. Therefore, choosing Digital Fragments 412 means choosing a work that connects the digital and the human.

Context: Ethereal Solid

The Ethereal Solid series comes from Leclerc’s wish to make abstract art more real. Earlier pieces in the Digital Fragments series focused on breaking things apart. However, this new work asks a different question. What if abstraction could feel solid? What if softness had shape? What can digital art show us, instead of hiding?

These pieces do not show people. Still, they feel like they have a body. The viewer may see a shoulder, a breath, or a slow movement. Moreover, the shimmer and curved lines create quiet presence. The work feels soft, but it stays grounded. Ultimately, the Ethereal Solid series opens a new path. It brings digital art closer to something we can feel, not just see.

Digital Fragments 401

Digital Fragments 401

Digital Fragments 401 is part of the Golden Rule Series. In this body of work, I explore movement, texture, and transformation through digital abstraction. Although each piece begins without a plan, it often finds its own rhythm. In this one, the forms seem to shift and pulse, as if suspended between stillness and motion. As a result, light and shadow sculpt the surface, revealing depth in every fold.

At the same time, a golden backdrop introduces a sense of calm. It acts as a quiet contrast to the restless energy of the forms. Moreover, soft pink and silvery tones enhance the sensation of movement. Consequently, the entire composition feels like a living, breathing material, constantly in flux.

Ultimately, Digital Fragments 401 continues my search for balance. I am drawn to spaces where structure dissolves. After all, that is often where the image begins to speak.
