Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork features an arrangement of five organic, irregularly-shaped forms. The predominant colors are deep, rich shades of brown and gold, with a mottled, textured surface that suggests a natural, earthy material. The composition is asymmetrical, with the forms seemingly scattered across the white background, creating a sense of playful, whimsical movement. The artist's use of these unique, fungal-like shapes invites the viewer to consider themes of nature, growth, and the unexpected beauty found in unconventional forms. This piece encourages a contemplative, open-ended interpretation of the natural world. ...

Eddie Rodolfo Aparicio’s work examines the erasure of Latinx history – facilitated by the colonialism upon which our contemporary Western geopolitical societies are built and ignoring the importance of Latinx contributions to culture, technology, and the economy – and to work towards reclaiming Latinx identity in the US and elsewhere. Aparicio works through the lens of migration, and is specifically interested in identity-construction and place-making. The artist’s sculptures are made from a range of materials, for example rubber, sulphur, wood glue, found cloths, acrylic, latex paint and cotton, but trees and their bark form the most vital part of Aparicio’s assemblages. He asserts that ‘colonial injustices have not only been directed towards humans. Environmental justice and social justice are deeply intertwined, and allowing material to be a collaborator in the works acknowledges it as a part of its own narrative.’ Aparicio creates giant draperies, like animal hides made from trees or palimpsests that communicate ancient histories of colonialism and displacement, and contemporary narratives of ecological crisis and social injustice.
