Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a whimsical, abstract sculpture of a canine figure. The composition employs a muted color palette dominated by shades of cream, yellow, and black, creating a visually striking and textural piece. The distorted, angular shapes and forms suggest an expressionistic or surrealist style, conveying a sense of fragmentation and movement. The sculpture's unusual pose and the inclusion of a supporting rod add an element of the absurd, inviting the viewer to ponder the artist's intention behind this unconventional representation of a dog. This thought-provoking work challenges traditional sculptural depictions, reflecting the artist's exploration of the boundaries between the familiar and the fantastical. ...

Alongside the narrative imagined by the artist, dreams and the subconscious create temporal and fictional distortions. In this narrative flux, characters borrowed from mythology and pop culture flirt with power, to find themselves trapped as historical landmarks, curled up in a fancy hotel or sitting on top of a CBD skyscraper in a search for eternal youth. ...
