Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a simple, minimalist composition. A large, unrefined stone block rests atop a series of thin, black metal rods, creating a striking visual contrast between the rugged, organic form and the sleek, industrial supports. The overall aesthetic suggests a dialogue between nature and industry, with the artist employing a reductive, conceptual approach to explore themes of balance, weight, and the relationship between natural and man-made elements. The work's spare, contemplative nature invites the viewer to consider the interplay of materials and the underlying conceptual ideas that shape this contemporary sculptural piece. ...

Remnant Recomposition 3 (Section D)
Artist
Cayetano Ferrer
B.1981, American

Cayetano Ferrer creates visual landscapes occupied by the detritus of contemporary and ancient culture. The artist is interested in billboards, signage, litter and neon; the visual pollution that occupies our everyday cognisance. He excavates their meaning and attention-grabbing function, stripping back their layers and examining that which they signify and obscure. Ferrer selects splintered fragments, whether that be shreds of textiles, offcuts of found wooden carvings, or sections of Art Deco patterns, amalgamating them into sprawling, loud visualisations. In ‘Remnant Recomposition’ (2014), the artist filled the gallery floor with a carpet adorned with reconfigured imagery taken from various casinos, such as the Bellagio, overlayed with Egyptian and Greek motifs. Standing atop the carpet on literal pedestals, Ferrer displays disjointed Greco-Roman sculptural fragments commonly found in a museum, a hierarchy-disrupting discrepancy between supposed low and high art. Written by Goldsmiths CCA ...
