Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This abstract sculptural work features a series of organic, mountain-like forms crafted from wood and set against a simple white backdrop. The composition showcases an interplay of natural and geometric elements, with the rugged, textured wooden shapes contrasted by the clean, minimalist frame. The artist has employed a subtle color palette, incorporating touches of blue that evoke a sense of water or sky, creating a contemplative and serene visual experience. This piece likely aims to explore themes of landscape, nature, and the relationship between the natural and the constructed world. ...

Industrially-processed and altered almost beyond recognition, the materials she uses are reconfigured and reimagined, in a challenge to the capitalist trajectories that have produced them. In reclaiming the depiction of landscape and natural phenomena from its cooption into imperialist narratives, different realities are allowed to take shape. ...
