Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary art piece appears to be an abstract sculptural installation. The visual elements consist of large, solid blocks of translucent material, arranged in a simple, geometric composition. The pale, glowing colors and soft, diffused light create a serene, ethereal atmosphere. The subject matter is ambiguous, but the work seems to explore themes of light, space, and materiality. The artistic style and technique suggest a minimalist aesthetic, with the artist employing industrial materials and a reductive approach to create a visually striking, contemplative piece. The historical context or the artist's intention behind this work is not immediately clear, but it likely invites the viewer to engage with the medium and experience the artwork's contemplative qualities. ...

Seeped through with a quiet lyricism informed by Ha’s interests in Western jazz and classical East Asian poetry, and inspired just as much by chance encounters as elaborate conceptual starting points, his paintings are, in the artist’s words, ‘attempts to better understand oneself in relation to nature, and to express what one cannot grasp’. ...
