ABOUT THE ARTWORK

An exploration of time and man as a robotized tool in the beginning of the industrialized era (and now). Henry Ford who was very much one of the pioneers of mass production and the assembly line in the making of his first car the Model T, revolutionized the manufacturing system of the time. Technology was incorporated as a tool to improve the social mobility of his labor force (besides lowering production costs etc..) and his 'Fordism' aspirations took in to account the well-being of society as a whole... What this means to us now, in this age of advanced technology where mechanization is likely to take over the role of humans and where that leaves us as a society is one we as a species are still grappling with. Medium: Winsor & Newton Artists Oils on Prepared (with Daler Rowney Clear Gloss Medium) Raw Linen, Mounted on Primed (Winsor & Newton Galeria Gesso) Thin Wood. Size: 2.5 x 3.5 Inches Varnished with: Winsor & Newton Retouch Varnish 'SOLD' note*.. The Black Border is just the background and is not part of the piece..

Every step of my Creative process, from conception, to creation of my final art-piece, is derived and created 100% without ANY Artificial Intelligence image generation assistance. ​ It's been my privilege to explore and delve into the myriad creative wonders of this artistic profession for over 15 years. To quote Christopher Hitchens, trying to "..... keep opposing ideas alive in the same mind" is truly what inspires (and frustrates) me daily. Pulling all these apparently divergent realities together, and then, breathing life into the resultant amalgamation in a way that speaks true to those who behold it on canvas, is an incredibly satisfying challenge. In so doing, I strive to create work that envisages the eternal explorations of 'truth' - that intangible carrot that teases us forward.. and that binds us as humans, irrespective of race, religion or the confines of social norms... ​ Growing up in the urban multi racial & cultural, sunny shores of Malaysia, with Anglo-Indian descent, has undoubtedly shaped my worldview and driven me to always try to represent diversity in my work as much as possible. My conceptual pieces are usually developed and inspired by what lurks within the pages of my second love - books, and the inevitable influences of the unique and 'exciting' times we live in.. I see the persistent honing of my artistic skills as integral to creating, and exploring and developing my skills in differing mediums and techniques is one of the many amazing and ever inspiring parts of the process. If any piece tickles your fancy or if you have any queries, Please don't hesitate to request more detailed pictures and angles of my artwork if you wish by contacting curator@saatchiart.com for more details. Choose what speaks to you,... A piece you love will be a companion for life..
