Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork depicts a large, open palm-shaped sculpture standing in a lush, grassy setting. The sculpture features various symbols and inscriptions, including astrological signs, numbers, and text referencing palmistry and the "bracelets of life." The color scheme is predominately white, with some accents of blue, red, and yellow. The overall composition and the juxtaposition of the symbolic elements suggest a surreal, whimsical, and metaphysical interpretation of the practice of palmistry. The historical context or the artist's intention behind this piece likely explores themes of divination, mysticism, and the human connection to the natural world. ...

Sand Saga
Artist
Shana Moulton
B.1976, American

Shana Moulton works in video, installation, opera and performance. Her practice follows Cynthia's bizarre journeys and experiences, the artist’s agoraphobic and hypochondriac alter-ego, who navigates the contemporary world’s societal and existential anxieties. Named after a senior mobile home park run by her parents in Yosemite, USA, Cynthia searches for meaning amidst New Age therapies, wellness products, spiritualism, self-diagnosis. Mouton’s work is at once humorous, filled with neon-colours, bubblegum, emojis and bubble baths, and tragic. The neurotic desire for spiritual enlightenment that runs through her works is contrasted with meme culture and soap operas. Her installations feature crystals, statuettes and vases, in the background of which run projections depicting Cynthia performing her self-help rituals. Bright, multifaceted and absurd, Moulton’s practice is a saga of self-reflection, the healing of the body and the anxiety of the mind. ...

Crèvecoeur
Paris, Paris

Crèvecœur, founded in 2009 by Axel Dibie (born 1981) and Alix Dionot-Morani (born 1979), located in the Belleville area (eastern Paris) has, since its creation, presented artists from France and the rest of the world whose different practices question current conditions for producing images and objects. The gallery sees itself as a body that supports its artists in the various stages of production, demonstration and dissemination of their practice. Through its work inside 3 gallery spaces — a 160 sq.m. space in Eastern Paris (20e) with natural light that can host ambitious exhibitions; and two spaces in the historic centre of Paris (7e) through the co-creation, since 2015, of a new alternative fair called Paris Internationale; through a publishing house called oe publishing books by represented and invited artists; and through support for production of the institutional shows of the represented artists, Crèvecœur is an entity which aims to adapt, in an organic way, to the challenging systems that contemporary artists experience today. ...
