Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This captivating piece features a natural, weathered wooden surface as its canvas. Vibrant splashes of yellow and orange hues, reminiscent of mushrooms or fungus, are scattered across the textured bark, creating a striking contrast against the earthy tones. The composition is asymmetrical, with the clustered organic forms drawing the viewer's eye across the work. The artist has skillfully incorporated the inherent characteristics of the wood, highlighting its innate beauty and allowing the material to become an integral part of the artwork. This piece likely explores themes of the natural world, decay, and the interplay between human and ecological elements. ...

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.
