About the Item

2009, Unique Artwork Oil on Canvas 41 7/10 × 39 2/5 in - 106 × 100 cm The artwork is dated and signed by the Artist & stamped with the logo of the studio of the Artist crazynOOdles on verso of the canvas The artwork come accompanied with a formal Certificate of Authenticity issued by the studio of the Artist and signed by the Artist serie "Pixelated Reverie : Exploring the Metaversal Labyrinth" In the mesmerizing series "Pixelated Reverie: Exploring the Metaversal Labyrinth," Sumomo Kanashiwa unveils a visual narrative that transcends the boundaries of reality, delving into the intricate tapestry of life within the metaverse. Each painting becomes a portal, inviting viewers to step into a world where pixels and dreams converge. The first canvas, titled "Digital Dawn," introduces us to the metaversal landscape bathed in the soft hues of a virtual sunrise. Kanashiwa's signature pink-haired girls, their contemplative expressions illuminated by the gentle glow, stand on the threshold of this digital realm. The scene evokes a sense of awakening, as if the characters are on the cusp of a new consciousness within the infinite possibilities of the metaverse. Moving deeper into the series, "Ethereal Echoes" captures the essence of digital memories. The canvas portrays translucent figures wandering through pixelated reflections of moments past. Kanashiwa skillfully weaves a narrative of nostalgia within the metaversal labyrinth, exploring how virtual spaces become repositories of our collective and individual memories. In "Binary Ballet," the artist depicts a mesmerizing dance of code, where pink-haired avatars gracefully move in synchronization with the algorithmic rhythms of the metaverse. The fusion of the organic and the digital creates a surreal ballet that speaks to the harmony found within the seemingly chaotic dance of virtual existence. As the series progresses, "Spectral Serenity" draws viewers into a serene metaversal oasis. Pink-haired figures float amidst ethereal landscapes, their expressions conveying a sense of tranquility that transcends the boundaries of the physical and the digital. Kanashiwa prompts us to question whether such serenity is achievable within the complexities of our interconnected, digital lives. The final canvas, "Transcendent Pixels," serves as the crescendo of the series. Here, the pink-haired protagonists stand at the nexus of the metaversal labyrinth, their forms merging with cascading streams of pixels. The piece suggests a transcendence of boundaries, a merging of self with the ever-expanding digital universe—a poignant reflection on the evolving relationship between humanity and technology. Sumomo Kanashiwa's "Pixelated Reverie" series becomes more than a collection of paintings; it is a profound exploration of the metaversal experience. Through her art, Kanashiwa invites us to contemplate the intersection of dreams and pixels, encouraging a reflection on the ways in which the digital realm intertwines with our understanding of self and existence. Each canvas is a chapter in this visual story, a testament to the boundless creativity that arises when one navigates the metaversal labyrinth.

"Shipyard" -- Oil Painting by Alexander Stolin
Located in New Orleans, LA
ALEXANDER STOLIN, born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine (under the former Soviet Socialist Republic), where he received intensive training and a master of fine arts degree in his homeland’s traditional art academies. He immigrated to San Francisco in 1992, met his future wife in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, then married and settled in New Orleans. He maintains a home and studio in Madisonville, Louisiana, and is a significant but understated figure in the New Orleans art community. As art critic D. Eric Bookhardt suggested in 2002, “Stolin is more accomplished than he is famous.” His art, often exhibited in thematic series that incorporate a variety of media, ranges from intimate portraits to large-scale murals (one measuring twelve feet by seventy-two feet). He has worked on a progressively larger scale, most recently designing and painting projects for the Louisiana film industry. Stolin’s technically proficient and complexly layered art reflects a unique fusion of the academic training he received in Kiev and his evolving response to the very different culture, lifestyle, and subject matter he has discovered in New Orleans, Madisonville, and the Gulf South.   Stolin’s Face to Face series of portraits, completed from 2000 to 2002, featured New Orleans artists including Douglas Bourgeois...
