Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork presents a captivating close-up view of a delicate, ice-like formation. The central focus is a smooth, curved surface that appears to be made of frozen water, with intricate, crystalline patterns scattered across its surface. The background is dominated by a pale, muted tone that complements the translucent, ethereal quality of the main subject. The overall composition emphasizes the inherent beauty and fragility of natural processes, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate the fleeting, temporary nature of these ephemeral structures. The artist's intention may be to highlight the delicate interplay between the elements and the transient beauty that can be found in the natural world. ...

Artist
Nina Canell
B.1979, Swedish

The practice of Swedish artist Nina Canell sheds light on immaterial, intangible forces and relations between objects. Her sculptures objectify these invisible transfers, expressed in tangible form. Canell’s practice, which often involves electrical currents, is informed by how energy is negotiated, interrupted and displaced. The artist is interested in how her sculptures can act as conduits that move, transmit and extend the energy that runs through them. Canell mixes electricity with sound and solid matter and plays with weight and gravity, with many sculptures appearing suspended in space, unconstrained and liberated. Assemblages are formed from various materials, tightly woven into compact sculptures or scattered across the gallery floor as enigmatic utopian detritus. ...

Kaufmann Repetto
Milan, New York City

francesca kaufmann gallery opened in January 2000. Since then, the gallery has aimed to explore a diverse range of media, with a focus on video, site specific installation, and a special attention towards the works of female artists. After ten years in its historical location, the gallery opened in a new space in October 2010, under the name kaufmann repetto, to mark the partnership between Francesca Kaufmann and Chiara Repetto. In its new location, the gallery has been able to further develop its exhibition programming through a project space dedicated predominantly to younger artists, as well as a courtyard for large scale outdoor installations, which run parallel to the gallery’s main exhibition schedule. In 2013, the gallery inaugurated a new location in Chelsea, New York, with a parallel program to the gallery’s main space in Milan. In 2019 the New York location moved to Tribeca, expanding to a 3,000 sq ft exhibition space. The inaugural exhibition at the gallery’s new space in Tribeca was a solo show by Lily van der Stokker. ...
