Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a vibrant blue background adorned with white abstract shapes, including stars and skull-like motifs.

Wyman recognises the importance of opacity in a post-truth society marred by state surveillance and hyper-transparency. Not only does camouflage and masking obscure identity, but ‘communal skins’ can act as a binding agent, creating collective identities; ‘when worn, a mask may permit an individual to simultaneously transgress social boundaries while belonging to a group.
