Weird but nice art by Alex Andreev, Russian artist.
He personally calls his style “Hermetic” whatever it could mean it’s worth taking a look.

If anyone is interested, 'Hermetic' typically means "sealed off from everyone" or "very secret". It's derived from ancient Egyptian cults known as Hermetic Orders. They based their rites and rituals off the far-more-ancient alchemical, magical and philosophical writings of the living God Thoth (known around the same time in Greece as Hermes Trismegistus). These Orders kept their secrets very, very close to their chests, and revealed little to outsiders, which is why, to this day, when something is sealed off or cannot be revealed, it is said to be "Hermetically sealed".

Beautiful surrealist art, at any rate. Love it.
