Amidst the vast expanse of the ocean, an image of a futuristic city emerges, defying the natural elements with its intricate structures. This digital art piece, reminiscent of the works of Marc Simonetti, Bruce Pennington, Aaron Horkey, and Gerald Brom, showcases a detailed matte painting that unfolds the secrets of a fantastical world. The cityscape, in 4k detail, is surrounded by shimmering waves, creating an ethereal contrast that adds to its surreal beauty. The intricate mandelbulb fractal, a testament to the artist's mastery of complexity and accuracy, adorns the towering buildings.
