Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This abstract sculptural piece features a bold, minimalist design composed of a series of interlocking black circles or discs. The overall shape is an elongated, organic arch-like form that creates a sense of tension and dynamism. The consistent use of the circular motif and the clean, monochromatic palette give the work a strong, industrial aesthetic. The artist's skillful use of negative space and the interplay between the solid and hollow elements result in a visually striking and conceptually intriguing artwork. This piece likely explores themes of mechanical processes, interconnectedness, and the dichotomy between form and function. ...

Artist

Johanna Unzueta

1974 , Chile

Chilean-born, New York-based artist Johanna Unzeuta intertwines components from Chilean craft practices, natural tinting, and repetitive mechanised movement. Unzueta’s creative output addresses the historical, technological, and social effects of labour on the nature of the human condition, as well as its interaction with nature. Employing techniques drawn from Latin American Indigenous craft practices, the paper that serves as the surface for her drawings is tinted by hand using natural dyes associated with the aforementioned practices.
