paint, stitching and photosilkscreen on 4 sections of non-woven fabric
Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork is a collection of silhouetted portraits arranged in a grid-like pattern against a stark white background. The monochromatic use of black and white creates a striking visual effect, emphasizing the shapes and contours of the faces. The repetitive arrangement suggests a study of identity, individuality, and the shared human experience. The style is minimal and conceptual, reflecting the artist's interest in the fundamental elements of portraiture and the power of simplicity to convey complex ideas. This installation piece likely aims to prompt the viewer's reflection on themes of diversity, identity, and the common threads that unite us as a society. ...

B.1984, Chilean

Chilean printmaker, painter, draughtsman and video artist Eugenio Dittborn has been creating what he terms ‘Airmail Paintings’ for the past four decades. These works, executed on brown paper, cotton duck or non-woven fabric, comprise found images originating from various media, such as books and magazines. Dittborn sees his appropriation as a means of ‘completing the visibility’; disseminating ‘lost’ images – perhaps only viewed for a few seconds when one is flicking through a magazine – through their postage and elevation into the gallery. The artist considers the folds in the paintings, made to fit the works into envelopes, as the contours of their passage, the lines on maps, and the ‘traces of the cultural and political landscapes through which they travel.’ ...
