Artist Statement: In the depths of our collective imagination, where the boundaries of human existence and technological advancement converge, the Symbiotic series serves as a visual metaphor for the intricate relationship between mankind and the very creations that spring forth from our ingenuity. These images lay bare, through the provocative lens of art, the symbiotic dance between humanity and the emerging technologies that are shaping our world. Artificial intelligence, bio-engineering, and cybernetics form the underlying tapestry of this visual narrative, weaving together strands of possibility and potential. They contemplate ideas of “post-human symbiosis”—that our relentless quest to transcend human limitations, may redefine the fundamental meaning of life as we know it.
This is the Symbiotic series which, was chosen by the esteemed panel of judges of the Boomer Prize 2024 in the UK as one of the top 20 winners (no. 11) from thousands of entries to the international competition.
