You've got some strong ideas here and play around with potentially striking images. Sometimes the imagery is a bit vague. The paragraph with "every traditional definition of aesthetic harmony" has tons of promise but I need some more concrete words of images before you introduce all these wonderful phrases ("aesthetic harmony" is such a good combo of words). Also, as a small nitpick and suggestion on my part, you could stick with giving the raw description indicating the contrast between Aris and their prior form. You could even pair that with the setting and how that also may create the contrasts between what is/was real/fake.
Anyways, it's a darn interesting idea. I look forwards to seeing more.
