Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork depicts a vibrant street market scene in a bustling urban setting. The composition is characterized by a striking use of bold, contrasting colors, with the deep blue sky providing a striking backdrop to the warm, earthy tones of the buildings and the colorful array of clothing and textiles displayed on the market stalls. The artist's use of dynamic lines and geometric shapes, along with the detailed rendering of the architectural elements and the market scene, suggest a keen eye for observation and a strong technical command of the medium. The overall style and subject matter suggest a focus on capturing the energy and liveliness of everyday urban life, offering a vivid glimpse into the cultural richness and diversity of the depicted setting. ...

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. He materialises the idea of the porosity of substances, in relationships of alterity or otherness. He interlinks it in his pieces with the notion of deterioration, as if resisting omission. ...
