Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This surreal artwork features a striking contrast of dark and light elements. The prominent pair of green, watchful eyes looming above a cascading waterfall creates an otherworldly, almost unsettling atmosphere. The central human silhouette emerging from the water adds a sense of mystery and introspection. The black-and-white palette, coupled with the dramatic lighting and framing, suggests the artist's intention to evoke a dreamlike, subconscious narrative, inviting the viewer to ponder the deeper symbolic meaning behind this captivating and thought-provoking composition. ...

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
Gallery
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. ...
