✦ Invisible Rhythms: A Producer’s Subconscious ✦

Art by SuOde | April 2025

I created this artwork as a special birthday gift for a dear friend.
I wanted to design a poster that reflects his spirit, energy, and inner world.
Now, I’m sharing the story behind this piece on my blog, to make it eternal. ✨

Sometimes, we don't just know a person through shared moments —
we sense the melody of their soul,
we read the silent stories passing through their eyes.
This poster is born out of such a deep perception:
an interpretation of a friend who crafts his own universe through sound —
a producer surrounded by the surreal creatures of his subconscious.

At the center stands the character, not merely playing music,
but weaving rhythms nourished by his own complex emotions and inner visions.
The glowing "NAOVI" on his sweatshirt represents more than a name —
it is a frequency, a state of existence.

Surrounding him are figures — mushrooms, creatures, ethereal beings —
each symbolizing fragments of his inner universe:
the unseen stories, the repressed emotions, and the sparks of imagination.
The dripping violet mushrooms embody intuition and surrender;
the crimson-eyed beast echoes hidden fears and struggles;
the delicate weeping figure whispers of deep compassion tucked away within the heart.

These beings are not random —
they are the seeds that nourish his music.
Every beat, every pulse, carries traces of this invisible world.
The producer draws from these realms;
each sound that emerges is like a drop of his inner cosmos flowing outward.

This scene captures a moment suspended between the real world and the subconscious.
Through his headphones, the producer doesn't just craft sound —
he captures emotions, memories, and journeys.
Though the setting is cloaked in darkness,
the energy radiating from his expression and the invisible vibrations spilling from his headphones
breathe life and hope into the scene.

This piece is not just a birthday gift;
it’s a reflection of his inner frequencies and creative essence.
With every vibration and every melody, he redefines his own universe.

Happy birthday.
May your inner music never fade. 🎶
