Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This abstract artwork features a minimalist composition with a predominant use of grey and white. The central focus is on two stylized eye shapes, rendered through a combination of embroidered lines and shapes. The overall aesthetic suggests a dreamlike or surreal quality, with the hanging strings evoking a sense of suspension or weightlessness. The artist's intention may be to explore themes of perception, consciousness, or the subconscious through this subtly expressive and conceptual visual language. ...

Artist

Julie Béna

B.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. ...
