Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This vibrant artwork depicts a lively street scene in a bustling urban setting. The composition features a striking color palette, with bold strokes of yellow and blue creating a dynamic, striped canopy overhead. The scene is populated with various figures engaged in daily activities, from people strolling along the sidewalk to vendors and patrons interacting in the shops. The artist employs a distinct, almost surreal style, capturing the energy and movement of the urban landscape. This piece likely reflects the artist's intention to celebrate the vibrant, diverse character of the city and its inhabitants. ...

Cheikh Ndiaye
B.1970, Senegalese

Cheikh Ndiaye’s work is guided by a singular look given to the informal, which is to him the source of his artistic practice. Retrieved from a lethal state, obsolete objects are brought back to life. The objects return to their material plenitude and are project into a renewed imaginary Cheikh Ndiaye’s world constantly reflects the origin of his research, the street. The painted views create openings and seem to traverse the opaque, dense and imposing exposed concrete wall. The everyday objects echo a tangible and established reality. However, the arrangements seem to veer from diverse spheres towards distant spaces and shifting times. The order of things through visible or concealed forms constantly reinvents itself to its limits. The unity of Cheikh Ndiaye’s work stems from the way he uses matter, recognizing its plurality.
