Urban canvas

Artist

As an artist, I have closely observed the interplay of light and technology, recognising the city as a symbol of our technological advances and interconnectedness. Through my brushstrokes, I sought to depict the complex relationship between humanity and the rapidly changing technological landscape. The integration of cyborgs and prosthetics in my work is not a fantasy idea, but rather a reflection of our current reality, an era in which humanity and technology are merging in surprising ways.Although the images may seem science-fictional, they reflect our present and foreshadow an exciting future. i insist that art acts as a compass for society, guiding us through this uncharted territory. Artists are paving the way with their visions and creations, illustrating the potential and limits of our technological advances.As we stand on the threshold of a new era, it is important to reflect on the delicate balance between humanity and technological progress. My paintings encourage us to protect the sacredness of our creativity and environment in this rapid evolution, reminding us that the true essence of our humanity can never be replaced by machines.
