Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a close-up view of a pair of large, unnatural yellow hands placed on a wooden floor.

This piece invites the viewer to contemplate the boundaries between the corporeal and the abstract. ...

Sarah Margnetti blends the body with architectural elements in comic hybridizations that unsettle notions of gender, sexuality, and domesticity. Her figures move seamlessly through surfaces and change their shape, only revealing themselves in fragmented parts that are depicted in stylistic contrast to meticulously wrought trompe l’oeil’ architectural materials. Shifting intuitively between medium and scale, Margnetti creates murals, textiles, furniture, and architectural interventions that display an array of technical and performative modes while thinning the divide between interiority and exteriority. ...
