Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a visually striking arrangement of diverse elements against a warm, peach-toned background. The central composition is a dynamic cluster of various wristwatches, sunglasses, and other accessories, with a distinctive colorful sneaker as the focal point. The overall visual style blends pop art-inspired collage techniques with a playful, surreal juxtaposition of everyday objects. The composition and choice of materials suggest a commentary on consumerism, material culture, and the interplay between utility and artistic expression in contemporary society. This thought-provoking work invites the viewer to explore the intersections between function, fashion, and the creative impulse. ...

B.1978, Argentinian

Amalia Pica’s practice, which includes sculpture, performance, installation, drawing and video, explores human communication, its failures and intimacy. Human modes of interaction, such as the desire to be understood and accepted, are central to her work. Pica uses found objects, like hair brushes, wine bottles and confetti, verbal and non-verbal linguistic tools, like texts and venn diagrams, out-dated means of communication, like shutter telegraphs and slide projectors. Her live performances are audience-driven, creating situations of encounters, awkward and real. Having been born during the 'Dirty War' in Argentina, Pica’s works further consider the issue of state control, history, representation and systems of bureaucracy. In her performances, she explores the ways civic participation can become a mode of resistance to political oppression across time and cultures. ...
