Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This monochromatic artwork features a surreal, fantastical scene rendered in a bold, expressive style. The composition is dynamic, with swirling, ethereal forms that evoke a sense of movement and energy. The use of contrasting light and dark tones creates depth and drama, while the gestural brushwork adds a sense of spontaneity and emotion. The subject matter, though not immediately recognizable, suggests a mythological or symbolic narrative, inviting the viewer to ponder the work's deeper meaning. The artist's unique approach to materials and technique reflects an experimental and innovative artistic practice rooted in the contemporary art tradition. ...

Artist

Sedrick Chisom

1989 , American

At the center of Sedrick Chisom’s practice is a commitment to confounding racial origin myths and pseudosciences toward creating apocalyptic fantasies in writing and painting. Appropriating imagery from Black Lives Matter demonstrations, medieval Christian iconography, and Greek mythology, Chisom questions who has the power to construct natural and social worlds, upending the authority of those worlds in the process. Chisom appoints himself a new mythmaker, one whose motivation is fundamentally pro-Black and who is committed to the acceleration of new imaginative possibilities. Chisom’s paintings are informed by and in dialogue with the speculative narratives he generates out of his extensive research practice. One subject of his narratives is the departure the POC Federation Fleet, after which all people of color have been transported away from Earth, leaving behind a series of landlocked commonwealths inhabited by white people with a medical condition that has altered the pigment of their skin. In his paintings, sickly violets, bright greens, and iridescent whites evoke the strange toxins of his narratives. In Chisom’s segregation narratives, the division of humans by supposed race is re-imagined, and the tropes of the American Civil War and other historic conflicts are revised. The remaining white race is divided into military opposition forces characterized respectively as the Confederate Disaffiliation of States and the Coastal Union of Civic States, both of which strive to re-assert their whiteness in a world where only white people remain. ...
