Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork features a striking visual composition. The central element is a soft, abstract shape in shades of grey, evoking the form of a mountain or cloud. This silhouette is framed by a vibrant, serrated yellow border, creating a dynamic contrast. The overall effect is a playful yet meditative interplay of form, color, and texture. The artist's unique approach, blending traditional textile techniques with a modern, minimal aesthetic, suggests an intention to explore the interplay between the natural and the manufactured. This piece invites the viewer to contemplate the relationship between the organic and the geometric. ...

Josephine Baker

B.1990, British

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. ...
