Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary art piece appears to be a conceptual work focused on the theme of travel. The visual elements include a sleek, minimalist suitcase-like structure made of metal and glass, with various compartments and accessories neatly arranged inside. The subject matter is a reflection on the essential tools and items needed for a journey, presented in a clinical and organized manner. The artistic style and technique employed suggest a focus on functionalism and a modern aesthetic. The overall composition and attention to detail create a sense of order and efficiency, inviting the viewer to consider the practicalities and rituals associated with travel. In terms of context, this work may be intended to comment on the experience of modern travel, its constraints, and the carefully curated necessities that shape our journeys in the contemporary world. ...

‘The art world is part of my medium,’ explains Kayode Ojo. A disciple of Marcel Duchamp, adopting his penchant for the appropriation of mundane, ‘readymade’ objects, and recognition of the gallery’s ability to vastly elevate the worth and discourse associate with the objects within its grasp, Ojo is interested in making layers of production and trade visible. He gathers fragments pertaining to a materialist, capitalist culture; relics of fast fashion like a H&M fringe dress, a grey ASOS suit, a hairpiece purchased from Amazon. Although Ojo problematises the objects’ conception, he also willingly elevates them, realising their aspirations for grandeur. He meticulously drapes synthetic fabric over metal armatures and pieces of Breuer-style furniture, fastening all of the items taut in a play of mutual culpability using key rings, carabiner hooks and steel handcuffs. ...
