Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The image depicts a close-up of a male figure's torso and groin area, with the focus being on the belt and buckles. The overall composition employs a stark, minimalist style, using predominantly dark and neutral tones to create a sense of intensity and tension. The image appears to be a conceptual exploration of themes related to masculinity, power, and control, potentially commenting on societal perceptions and expectations surrounding the male form. The artist's intention may be to challenge conventional notions of masculinity and provoke introspection on the complex sociocultural factors that shape our understanding of gender and identity. ...

B.1990, American

‘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. ...
