Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary art piece features a whimsical miniature scene depicting a small cemetery with a towering tree overgrowing the landscape. The vibrant colors of the foliage contrast with the muted tones of the gravestones and vintage automobiles, creating a striking visual juxtaposition. The artistic style employs meticulous attention to detail, blending realism with a touch of surrealism to evoke a dreamlike quality. The artwork likely comments on the transience of life and the cycle of growth and decay, inviting the viewer to ponder the relationship between nature, humanity, and the passage of time. ...

Artist

Patrick Goddard

B.1984, British

Patrick Goddard primarily creates video, sculpture and installation as well as working with photography, painting and drawing. His politically loaded and narrative based works undermine themselves with a self-defeating black comedy as they chart the artist’s fumbled attempts to create a personal and political integrity. Works focus on a range of topics: from ecology, the Anthropocene and the animal; to race politics, gentrification, and urbanization. Goddard’s recent solo exhibitions include ‘Pedigree’, Seventeen, 2022; ‘Die Biester’, E-Werk, Freiburg, 2021; ‘Trip to Eclipse’, Matt’s Gallery, London 2020; ‘Go Professional’, Seventeen, 2017; ‘Looking for the Ocean Estate’ Almanac Projects, London, 2016, ‘Gone To Croatan’ at Outpost Gallery, Norwich, 2015; ‘Revolver II’ at Matt’s Gallery, London, 2014. He is also featured in the UK touring exhibition, British Art Show 9, 2021-22 and released a book of photography with the Basel based publishers Speres Projects in 2022. Goddard completed an MFA at Goldsmiths University in 2011 and a doctorate at Oxford University in 2018. Most recently, Goddard presented a solo exhibit at the inaugural Paris+ par Art Basel centred around a new film titled Whoopsie’s Dream. ...
