Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a minimalist, installation-style composition with a combination of found objects and sculptural elements. The color palette is predominantly white and red, creating a striking visual contrast. The central focus is a model of a building or architectural structure, made of a monochrome material, positioned on a simple table. Surrounding it are various framed artworks and other sculptural pieces, suggesting a cohesive, conceptual installation. The style and techniques employed reflect a contemporary, avant-garde approach, perhaps commenting on themes of urban space, memory, or the relationship between form, function, and artistic interpretation. ...

Artist

Ben Schumacher

Canadian

Exploring the relationship between the digital and physical realms and the flow of information in the Internet age, Ben Schumacher creates strange, uncanny installations composed of juxtapositions and dissonances. The artist’s multimedia settings feature IKEA furniture, energy drinks, 3D printers, sketches, cheeses, pool tables, restaurant replicas, and absurdist sculptures. The running theme of his works is that of dislocation, a strange discrepancy between physicality and representation. By connecting objects that do not go together or placing familiar artefacts into unfamiliar constellations, his installations delicately translate statistics and diagrams into unexpected physicalities. From undersea telecommunication infrastructure to cheese production to office architecture and cybernetics, Schumacher tackles contemporary concerns by revealing disconnections inherent in today’s connected world.
