Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork features a hanging sculpture composed of a cascading arrangement of colorful tassels. The composition is visually striking, with the tassels creating a dynamic vertical form that draws the eye upward. The vibrant palette, ranging from warm reds and oranges to cool blues and greens, adds a playful and celebratory quality to the piece. The artist's use of textiles and handcrafted elements suggests a focus on process and materiality, reflecting a contemporary approach to sculpture. This work likely aims to explore themes of movement, color, and the transformative potential of ordinary materials in the context of the gallery setting. ...

Artist
Carolina Caycedo
B.1978, Colombian

Carolina Caycedo (1978, lives in Los Angeles) was born in London to Colombian parents. She transcends institutional spaces to work in the social realm, where she participates in movements of territorial resistance, solidarity economies, and housing as a human right. Carolina’s artistic practise has a collective dimension to it in which performances, drawings, photographs and videos are not just an end result, but rather part of the artist’s process of research and acting. Through work that investigates relationships of movement, assimilation and resistance, representation and control, she addresses contexts, groups and communities that are affected by developmental projects, like the construction of dams, the privatization of water, and its consequences on riverside communities. ...
