Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This captivating artwork features a striking abstract composition. The predominant colors are shades of gray, creating a moody and pensive atmosphere. The shapes resemble fragmented organic forms, some with a ghostly, ethereal quality. Interspersed among the gray tones are small, pale green elements that appear to be leaves or petals, adding a hint of natural imagery. The overall effect is one of a surreal, dream-like landscape, inviting the viewer to interpret the work's symbolic meaning. The artist's intention likely explores themes of the subconscious, fragmentation, and the intersection of the natural and the ethereal. ...

Truc-Anh
B.1983, French/Vietnamese

“Painting is an absolute medium to think about the world and also to read and compare human history through [various] ages, styles and convictions. I try to begin a painting as if it was the first one. I want to free my mind of known techniques, methods and habits.” Distinctly urban, dynamic and contemplative, Truc-Anh is a Vietnamese-French artist who works in a range of media that includes photography, video, drawing, sculpture and performance. Recently, he has been focusing considerable attention to the medium of painting wishing to challenge our modern condition of passive viewing. Through his paintings, Truc-Anh encourages viewers to actively engage, pause and ponder what is made visible through careful layers of applied pigments. Truc-Anh’s paintings are not derivative of everyday reality, but offer the potential to create unexplored, unstable worlds that invite further meditation. His works explore the duality of the image, and the possibilities of belief and contradiction that lie therein. Employing mechanisms of destabilization, more specifically the coupling of the material with the immaterial, of paint and fiction, Truc-Anh presents a fractured world in his work. Drawing upon a range of references from art history to contemporary culture, the presumed direct relationship between the viewer and the work betrays a tenuous hold. ...
