Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This artistic photograph captures a solitary cheeseburger against a stark black backdrop, creating a dramatic and minimalist composition. The muted earth tones of the bun, cheese, and lettuce elements contrast with the deep black background, emphasizing the burger's form and texture. The use of dramatic lighting and shadow further accentuates the burger's three-dimensional shape, lending it an almost sculptural quality. The overall effect is a thought-provoking commentary on the visual power of everyday, mass-produced food items when presented in an unconventional, fine art context. ...

Monira Al Qadiri
B.1983, Kuwaiti

Monira Al Qadiri is a multimedia artist who was raised in Kuwait. Her artistic practice spans geopolitics, petropolitics and diplomacy. It investigates the cultural history of her native land, its history of invasion and intervention, and how it has been infiltrated and informed by foreign and domestic rituals and power relations. While Al Qadiri’s work is drenched in the legacy and omniscience of oil within Kuwait, pearls provide a further motif. Before becoming a petrostate, pearling was Kuwait’s main export, and the artist’s grandfather worked as a singer on a pearl diving boat. Al Qadiri draws links between pearls and petrol, both iridescent by nature, refracting light and historically coveted. Gender identity is another theme that hangs over the artist’s work; she often plays with binary, entrenched gender roles, adopting a male persona, such as in the music video, Abu Athiyya (Father of Pain). This piece is a lament or, as the artist describes, a ‘eulogy towards the aesthetics of sadness’. Al Qadiri uses VHS footage, both newly shot and retrieved from her childhood, to create multilayered ruminations on cultural collision, mass media and globalisation. ...
