Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The image depicts shards of broken ceramic tiles in varying shades of blue, arranged on a concrete surface. The tiles are irregularly shaped, with rough, jagged edges, creating a visually striking composition. The artwork showcases the artist's exploration of texture, material, and the beauty that can be found in the imperfect and discarded. The use of blue, a common color in traditional ceramic tiles, adds a sense of cohesion and reflects the artist's interest in recontextualizing everyday objects. This piece likely comments on themes of decay, fragmentation, and the unexpected beauty that can emerge from the broken and forgotten. ...

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. ...
