Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a striking and surreal image of a translucent, luminous marine creature suspended in the dark. The vibrant colors, ranging from vivid purple to luminous yellow, create a captivating visual interplay. The overall composition is striking, with the tentacle-like appendages and the central bulbous structure evoking a sense of alien, otherworldly beauty. The artwork seems to explore the mysteries and wonders of the deep sea, using the unique form and luminosity of the creature to spark the viewer's imagination. The artist's intention may be to highlight the enchanting and mysterious qualities of the natural world, inviting the audience to ponder the diversity and complexity of marine life. ...

B.1992, French

Josèfa Ntjam is an artist, performer and writer whose practice combines sculpture, photomontage, film and sound. Collecting the raw material of her work from the internet, books on natural sciences and photographic archives, Ntjam uses assemblage – of images, words, sounds, and stories – as a method to deconstruct the grand narratives underlying hegemonic discourses on origin, identity and race. Her work weaves multiple narratives drawn from investigations into historical events, scientific functions and philosophical concepts, to which she confronts references to African mythology, ancestral rituals, religious symbolism and science-fiction. These apparently heterogeneous discourses and iconographies are marshalled together in an effort to re- appropriate History while speculating on not-yet-determined space-times – interstitial worlds where systems of perception and naming of fixed (id)entities no longer operate. From there, Ntjam composes utopian cartographies and ontological fictions in which technological fantasy, intergalactic voyages and hypothetical underwater civilizations become the matrix for a practice of emancipation that promotes the emergence of inclusive, processual and resilient communities. ...
