Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features an array of bold, vibrant colors and striking shapes against a dark background. Two prominent elements are visible - a curling, cracked red object resembling a chili pepper or dried fruit, and a smaller, sliced piece with a textured, crunchy appearance. The composition has a surreal, almost sculptural quality, highlighting the interplay of light and shadow. The artist's use of contrast and organic forms creates a compelling visual experience that challenges the viewer's perception of familiar objects. This contemporary still life artwork likely invites reflection on themes of decay, transformation, and the inherent beauty found in the mundane. ...

Emerging from the New York Avant-garde film community of the 1960s, experimental filmmaker Hollis Frampton was a key figure in developing structuralism, a branch of film theory that investigates and challenges film as a form. Structuralism undermines film’s traditional narratives, instead using the consecutive juxtaposition of shots to form and shape meaning, a technique that Frampton believed is the essence of filmmaking. As well as being intrigued by philosophy and literature and how they shaped the medium of film, Frampton had an interest in computer science – an emerging field in the 1970s to which he significantly contributed – and this bled into his work: Frampton’s films borrowed and were structured around concepts from mathematics and science. ...
