Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This artwork features a striking monochromatic landscape rendered in a distinctive pyrographic technique, where the image is burned into the wooden surface using a heated tool. The prominent composition captures a dynamic scene of prehistoric creatures - likely dinosaurs or other ancient beasts - against a rugged, mountainous backdrop. The artist's use of sweeping, gestural lines and textures evokes a sense of movement and energy, suggesting the artwork may be inspired by early paleoartistic depictions of the prehistoric world. While the precise historical context is unclear, this work showcases the artist's technical skill and imaginative interpretation of the natural environment's primordial past. ...

Combining literary and historical reference with autobiographical experiences, Cole Lu's practice builds new mythologies that carry echoes of trauma, transformation and regeneration. Lu questions the theistic concept of creatio ex nihilo (creation out of nothingness), proposing a more complicated interspersal of time and human existence. Presented as a compilation of gestures or a collection of brief anecdotes, Lu's work unfolds serially, following invented characters through a parallel world of his creation. Each exhibition or body of work reveals another element, broadening his narrative to incorporate new sites and characters. He (re)invents, (re)names, and (re)writes his subjects, composing each work with an elaborate fragmented title – a literary device that further subverts conventional linear narratives and amplifies his poetic vision. ...
