Man, laptop and a dream by Aleksandra Cegielska
Four paintings, the main parts of the exhibition Till death do us part, are large, vertical works.
The 16:9 ratio is a heavy and rather uncommon format for canvas. Four paintings and four black screens, partly inspired by Black Mirror, partly by the real world. Four black screens: a phone, a tablet, a laptop and a TV.
This painting captures the intimate yet unsettling scene of someone drifting into sleep with a laptop still glowing beside them. This piece reflects the pervasive presence of technology in most personal spaces, blurring the lines between reality and the digital world.
