Description
This contemporary sculptural artwork features a striking assemblage of metal figures arranged on a raised turquoise platform. The dominant color palette is muted, with various shades of grey, black, and white, creating a sense of industrial decay.

The work appears to explore themes of industrialization, technology, and the human condition, inviting the viewer to contemplate the relationship between humanity and the modern world. ...
