Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features an abstract composition of blue boxing gloves arranged in a striking visual pattern. The sleek, minimalist design showcases the simple shapes and vivid blue color of the gloves, which are suspended by thin metal rods in a symmetrical, almost sculptural arrangement. The piece reflects a modernist aesthetic, highlighting the inherent forms and materials to create a visually compelling and thought-provoking work. The artwork may be intended to explore themes of athleticism, competition, or the interplay between aggression and restraint. ...

Appropriating found objects and refashioning them to new aesthetics, Dozie Kanu creates sculptures and photography that are inherently disobedient and stubbornly slippery. They resist classification and exist instead as communicative or performative objects. Kanu’s ongoing investigation into the limits of form, functionality, materiality and usefulness are often filtered through a personal lens drawn from the artist’s lived experiences. In the artist’s debut solo exhibition at Project Native Informant, Owe Deed, One Deep, 2020, every sculpture remixes and modifies found objects, with the visible rust as a reminder of how readily items are discarded once they are deemed no longer productive. The repurposing of objects deemed useless, the artist honours and reanimates the people whose labour gave them function. In extending the lives of these unwanted items, he perpetuates the existence of those who brought them into being. His memorialisation is a site of collective mourning which has not yet ceased to exist, acknowledging that the pathways and legacies of the oppressive systems of the past continue to characterize the present. ...
