Description

Continuing my theme of breaking things apart and putting them back together in my style of color gradation, this painting is based on Greco-Roman sculpture and the movie ‘Ghost In The Shell’

This piece reflects on the ambition of making surrogates for our elevated systems. Once this was a higher power with deities sculpted out of marble, we now have artificial intelligence systems with the intent to create autonomous entities.
