Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

Visual Elements: The artwork features a close-up view of a golden, glittery Diet Coke can with bold red text. The overall composition is centered and minimal, with the can occupying the majority of the frame. Subject Matter: The image depicts a familiar consumer product, a Diet Coke can, but with an enhanced, textured surface that adds a layer of visual interest. Artistic Style and Technique: The work employs a pop art-inspired style, elevating a mundane, everyday object through the use of shimmering materials and vibrant colors. The detailed rendering of the can's surface suggests a meticulous and labor-intensive technique. Context: This work likely comments on the role of mass-produced consumer goods in contemporary culture, perhaps questioning the allure and underlying meaning of these ubiquitous items. ...

Artist

Gina Fischli

1989 , Swiss

Gina Fischli’s practice is characterised by the playful employment of a multitude of different media, including glitter and denim, to explore notions of fantasy, food, materiality and consumption in contemporary society. Cleverly upending notions of scale, fake and real, Fischli sculpts castle-shaped cakes – complete with fondant-like turrets and windows – from polymer clay, as well as large portraits on plywood bejewelled with glitter that depict cocktail glasses and Diet Coke cans. Fischli’s castle cakes are often named after real British and German medieval or neo-Gothic castles, monumental and supposedly haunted buildings, humorously rendered by the artist in saccharine, sugar-frosted technicolour. Written by Goldsmiths CCA ...

Gallery

Soft Opening

London

Founded in 2018 by Antonia Marsh, Soft Opening presents UK-based and international emerging contemporary artists, and often their first solo presentations in London. Focusing on work pushing the conventional limits of medium or material, the gallery presents a wide range of media and practices. Soft Opening built its early program with projects that responded to the gallery’s unique first location in Piccadilly Circus Underground Station. Opening a second space in East London in 2019 saw programming strategy develop as Soft Opening began participating in international art fairs and representing artists. Programming is now focused at this East London space. In 2020 the gallery began publishing artist monographs - the first was with Tenant of Culture in 2020 followed by Gina Fischli in 2021 and Sin Wai Kin in 2022. ...
