Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a striking wall lamp with a vibrant, red-hued bulb encased in an ornate, crescent-shaped metal frame.

The minimalist, geometric design of the lamp's frame and the gradients of color in the light source suggest a fusion of modern and traditional aesthetic elements, hinting at the artist's intention to blend historical influences with contemporary interpretations. ...

Artist

Julie Béna

1982

Julie Béna was born in 1982 in Paris, France, and currently lives and works between Prague and Paris. The work of Julie Béna is made up of an eclectic set of references, combining contemporary and ancient literature, high and low art, humor and seriousness, parallel times and spaces. Comprising sculpture, installation, film, and performance, her work seems to often float in an infinite vacuum, unfolding against a fictional backdrop where everything is possible. Over the past years, Béna has developed a range of personal cosmologies in which she stages seemingly banal characters and objects that have enigmatic conversations and interactions with each other. From Pantopon Rose – a character taken from William S. Burroughs’ ‘Naked Lunch’ –, to Miss None and Mister Peanut – a disembodied floating wig and the iconic monocled anthropomorphic peanut –, Béna lends her characters a singular agency and voice, which defines them by what they are not. ...
