Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork depicts a pair of white swans swimming in a dark, rippling body of water. The vibrant white of the swans' plumage contrasts sharply with the deep, moody hues of the surrounding landscape. The artist employs a distinctive expressionistic style, using thick, gestural brushstrokes to capture the movement and energy of the scene.

Artist
Ekene Stanley Emecheta
1994 , Nigerian

Ekene Stanley Emecheta began his artistic journey at the tender age of four.

Emecheta often places figures of African descent in settings that deviate from their conventional or anticipated backdrops, challenging and reshaping historical narratives. Through his portraiture, Emecheta seeks to capture the core of the human experience, revealing the intricate facets of his subjects' stories and diverse identities. ...

The Breeder
Athens

The Breeder gallery was formed organically from The Breeder magazine due to the need of Athenian artists to promote international dialogue. Over the last 20 years The Breeder has been a pioneer in the development of the contemporary art scene in Athens. They show art that is relevant to our times and promote a select group of Greek artists on the global arena while also showing cutting edge international artists. The Breeder serves as a link that connects cultures and supports a deeper exchange. They support their community by providing an active platform for the exchange of ideas and ideals. In 2019 they introduced The Breeder Open Studio initiative, where the gallery is available to invited artists prior to their show. Working onsite the artists have the opportunity to engage with the audience in more substantial ways. Invited artists of the Breeder Open studio, include Ariana Papademetropoulos, Chioma Ebinama, Joy Labinjo, Ekene Stanley Emecheta, Victor Ubah, Barry Yusufu and Adegboyega Adesina. ...
