The Hidden Selfie to the Trillion Dollar Elephant Iced Cacti YT Video

The moment rzmy took this selfie mid-video

In the world of art, sometimes the most captivating moments happen behind the scenes, in a flash, without any planning. While recording the Trillion Dollar Elephant video for Iced Cacti, something special was captured. The moment you see here is a selfie that my son, RZMY, snapped in the middle of filming. It’s raw, unfiltered, and caught the two of us vibing, mid-creative flow, with the Trillion Dollar Elephant standing powerfully behind us.

This photo represents more than just a behind-the-scenes look. It gives you a glimpse into the energy and connection we share while creating these projects. You’ll see this very moment unfold in the video itself, but here’s a little challenge for you: Can you spot this exact moment in the video? Maybe you’ll catch the subtle expressions we had before or after this freeze-frame, or even recognize a connection between Trillion Dollar Elephant and my earlier piece, Empowered.

Both pieces, in their own way, represent different sides of the same coin. I leave it to you, the audience, to decide—are these two paintings really about the same individual? After watching, I’d love to hear what you think. Head over to Iced Cacti on YouTube, find this moment, and let me know—do Trillion Dollar Elephant and Empowered speak to you in the same way?

Explore the full video and the meaning behind the art—if you know me, maybe you’ll catch something familiar. And don’t forget to share your thoughts!
