POST-HUMAN ImaGinaRy enEMy, Halo & Self-dEstructiOn, photography print, 180cm*150cm, 2023 Boldly exploring the deep realm of the human subconscious, the artist employed a revolutionary approach to still-life photography that breaks the boundaries of traditional norms. By combining tangible elements from the real world with a series of tiny, shiny objects, the artist depicts the complexity of the human spiritual world. The artist creates images in four colors, each of which tells a unique story of seasonal transitions, religious and mystical insights, and the mysterious longings hidden in the human subconscious. The artist meticulously crafts the scenes and photographs the works in specially designed mirrored installations, utilizing reflective surfaces to form intricate vistas and avoiding any post-production splicing. The visual centerpiece of each of these works is a figurehead - a concrete manifestation of the artist's interpretation and conception of the post-human concept. On a visual level, the works perfectly blend the many fashionable and trendy elements of the punk and metal music scene, creating a bustling scene on the eve of the post-apocalyptic world.
