write a stable diffusion prompt which is based on glitch art and integrates German Expressionism
Here's a Stable Diffusion prompt that fuses **Glitch Art** with **German Expressionism**:
---
**Prompt:**
> *A haunting digital portrait in the style of German Expressionism, infused with glitch art aesthetics — bold, jagged brushstrokes and distorted geometry evoke raw emotion and psychological tension, while corrupted pixel fragments, RGB channel splitting, and digital noise warp the figure’s face and background. Use deep shadowy blues, bleeding crimsons, and flickering neon tones. The composition is chaotic and emotionally charged, like a corrupted oil painting meeting a broken screen. Dramatic lighting with surreal contrast, heavy impasto texture, grain, and data-moshing artifacts — highly detailed, 4k resolution, studio light.*
