Six N. Five's Startling "Umbral," an Art Piece Where the Real and Virtual Intersect

Here's a rock sitting on what appears to be a mirror.

In fact, beneath the mirrored glass is an LED panel.

Called Umbral, the art piece was created by Barcelona-based artist Six N. Five, a/k/a Ezequiel Pini.

"Umbral (2025) is an intention to continue exploring the delicate boundary between the digital and the tangible. A stone, shaped through years of natural erosion, is now gently immersed in a digital flow, creating a dialogue between solidity and illusion."

"When the digital fades, only the mirrored surface remains, as if the virtual world had never existed.

"This work comes from my fascination with the moment when the real and virtual intersect, challenging our perception and expanding the boundaries of reality."
