Clay, acrylic and oil paints, found object (circuit board, plastic eyes and mirrors)

Through hand-sculpted clay and found objects, this work explores the interconnectedness between humans, nature, and modern technologies that shape the perception of reality.

Along the serpent winding around the sculpture is a warning inscription: “Do not trust your eyes. AI creeps into the mind like a slow poison, replacing reality drop by drop.” The intentionally artificial yet still realistic colour palette reflects how images created by AI can imitate reality while subtly altering our perception of it each time, blurring the boundaries further and further.

Embedded fragments of circuit boards growing through moss that emerges from a clay imitation of a real stump embody the intertwining of technology with the real world, while plastic eyes hint at the constant presence of an artificial observer. Small fragments of mirrors reflect the surrounding world through distorted perspectives, while simultaneously questioning what we see and what we are beginning to believe.

DANGER: POISON is not a warning about a physical substance, but about the hidden influence of artificial images and distorted realities created by technology.
