Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork features a simple yet intriguing composition. The visual elements include a stack of wooden plates with a single, artfully arranged piece of bread placed on top. The bread, with its textural imperfections and vibrant colors, serves as the focal point, drawing the viewer's attention. The artist's use of everyday, mundane objects and the minimalist presentation suggest a commentary on the nature of art and the beauty found in the ordinary. The work's context likely reflects the artist's intention to challenge the traditional boundaries of art and encourage a fresh perspective on the world around us. ...

Artist
Steve Bishop
B.1983, Canadian

Steve Bishop works with fabricated and found materials and objects to articulate the poignancy and humour in sentimentality. His installations, such as little statues, a bowl of milk and cereal, an unmade bed, a half-eaten cake, or a screenshot of a Facebook chat, point to both the importance and futility of time and of a human life. Experiencing his installations produces an eerie feeling of entering into domestic settings but finding their inhabitants missing. Bishop’s video works feature touching amateur and found footage, like karaoke performances and cover songs. His works, to put it in the artist’s words, are “containers for something”, that “something” being evermore personal. Thus, the artist’s objectively everyday representations carry a subjective substance of serenity of human existence and cosiness of a regular life. ...
