Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This black-and-white photographic artwork features an abstract, almost surreal depiction of a face. The image is heavily textured and distorted, with a dreamlike quality. The composition focuses on the close-up perspective, emphasizing the expressive, ethereal nature of the subject. The artist employs a distinctive style that blends realism and abstraction, creating a haunting and enigmatic visual experience. This work likely reflects the photographer's intention to evoke a sense of the subconscious or to challenge traditional representations of the human form. ...

B.1975, American

Myra Greene is an American artist whose practice explores notions of race, identity, labour and history. Working across photography and textiles, Greene traces fragmented narratives, such as disconnected histories, estranged family connections, or separated Black bodies, and reconfigures them into new constellations. Her earlier photographic work utilises the 19th-century process of ambrotype: a technique which involves longer exposure and which is associated with slavery daguerreotypes. Evoking the complex conversation on colonialism and Black body, the artist depicts her own physical features, lips, nose, or skin, detached from the rest of herself. More recently, Greene creates large textile pieces composed of triangular-shaped, colourful pieces of fabric stitched together. To produce them, the artist silk-screens patterns inspired by Dutch prints over African fabrics; yet again creating a meeting point between distinct histories. Greene’s practice is incredibly rich in both the amount of historical intricacy it invites and its vibrancy of colour. ...
