Dark Avant-Garde Cinematic Portrait with Multi-Color Lighting

Use the exact same face from the reference image and generate a dark avant-garde cinematic portrait that exists somewhere between fashion, fine art, and a waking dream - where the lighting itself is the narrative and the face is the canvas. The subject wears a deconstructed avant-garde ensemble - an asymmetric structured black coat with one dramatically oversized architectural shoulder and one completely absent, the fabric somewhere between tailoring and sculpture, raw edges deliberately unfinished, beneath it nothing but skin and shadow. The silhouette from the shoulder down is pure geometry - harsh angles, deliberate imbalance, the clothing as architecture rather than garment. One hand emerging from the oversized sleeve with fingers slightly extended, the other arm completely dissolved into darkness. Pose is sculptural and deliberately unsettling in its beauty - torso twisted at an impossible yet elegant diagonal, the oversized shoulder rising above the frame edge on one side, the body weight dropped entirely onto one hip creating a severe angular silhouette. Head turned at a sharp unexpected angle - not the comfortable three-quarter turn but something more extreme, more committed, the neck revealing its full length and architectural quality. The entire body reading as a dark sculpture that happens to be alive. Expression is the most complex and unreadable yet - eyes at a precise half-lid, the pupils carrying a quality somewhere between complete emptiness and infinite depth simultaneously. The gaze not quite at the lens but through it - looking at something that exists beyond the camera, beyond the room, beyond the frame entirely. Lips parted at an asymmetric angle - one corner very slightly higher than the other, a completely involuntary micro-expression that reads as neither smile nor sadness but something that has no name. The face of someone existing at a frequency the rest of the world cannot tune into. The lighting is where this image becomes genuinely avant-garde and has never been seen before - four distinct light sources each a completely different color temperature hitting the face from four completely different directions simultaneously creating a lighting situation that should be chaotic but is instead devastatingly controlled and beautiful. From directly above - a narrow cold white surgical spotlight carving the crown of the head and the nose bridge in clinical precision. From the left side at eye level - a deep electric cobalt blue kicker light hitting the left cheekbone and temple in cold neon intensity. From below and to the right - a narrow warm amber-gold uplight catching the right jaw edge and the underside of the chin in warm counter-intuitive upward light. From directly behind - a broad deep violet-magenta halo light bleeding outward from behind the head into the black void, the oversized coat shoulder catching and scattering this rear light in complex fabric-texture shadow patterns. All four sources existing simultaneously on the same face - white cold above, cobalt blue left, warm amber right, violet magenta behind - the face a canvas for four completely different light stories happening at once, each one revealing a different skin zone in a different color and from a completely different angle. The result is not garish but mathematical and precise - a face mapped in four light colors like a technical diagram of what light can do to a human face. real skin transitions between different colored light sources, the color mixing happening on the biological surface of real skin rather than in post-processing. Background is absolute black void - the violet-magenta halo from behind the subject the only disruption, bleeding outward from the coat silhouette into the darkness in complex organic light scatter, the coat shoulder scattering the rear halo light into dramatic architectural shadow shapes across the void.
