Glossolalia

A vibrant and psychedelic artwork featuring a central motif of a colorful, stylized eye with a green iris, red and yellow outlines, and a white starburst near the pupil. The eye is surrounded by an intricate pattern of wavy, radiating lines in various shades of blue, creating an illusion of movement and depth. The background is filled with a dynamic and fluid blue pattern that resembles ripples on water, contributing to the overall trippy and mesmerizing effect of the piece.
