Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This sculptural work features a striking abstract form in a dark, earthy tone. The shape is composed of intersecting planes and sharp angles, creating a sense of dynamism and tension.

The artist is interested in confrontation, with his audience, with an artistic persona, as well as logical parameters of painting as a medium. Stripped of unnecessary detail and drowning in the sea of colour, Marcus’s works are open spaces of unnerving meaning unconnected to one another.
