Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork depicts two cocoa pods against a dark background. The pods have distinct textures, with one exhibiting a golden, rough exterior and the other a silver, smoother surface. The juxtaposition of the two elements, both in terms of color and tactile quality, creates a striking visual contrast. The artist's focus on the natural forms and their inherent beauty suggests an appreciation for the organic world and its intriguing details. This still-life composition may serve to highlight the significance of cocoa cultivation and its role in the global economy and cultural traditions. ...

Silvana Pestana

Pestana’s research centralizes around humans who live in deprived areas. Her objective is to highlight the devastating environments in which people suffer due to the vulnerability of both state and social passivity. She relies on the worldview and mythology engrained in each community who share their unique story, and in turn helps emphasise human wealth above material. For Pestana, the greatest irony of globalization is perhaps the fact that it has served to increase the gaps that separate us. Her projects seek to create empathy by highlighting ideas that are universal: the fragility of love, love of our loved ones, suffering in the face of loss and the desire of a better life. ...
