ABSOLUTE LOVE

ABSOLUTE LOVE

LOVE IS NOT ALWAYS PURE. SOMETIMES IT IS MARKETED.

THE HELMET PROTECTS THE SKULL. THE SLOGAN PROTECTS THE LIE.

ABSOLUTE LOVE SITS ABOVE THE FOREHEAD LIKE A PROMISE OF WHOLENESS. BUT PROMISES PRINTED IN BRAND FONT ARE NEVER INNOCENT.

WE ARE TAUGHT TO CONSUME AFFECTION THE SAME WAY WE CONSUME DISTRACTION. BUY THE FEELING. WEAR THE MESSAGE. CALL IT REAL.

THIS IS THE PARADOX. WE ARMOR THE HEAD AND FILL IT WITH FANTASY. WE SEEK CONNECTION THROUGH IMAGE. WE SEEK INTIMACY THROUGH PRODUCT.

LOVE CANNOT BE DISTILLED. IT CANNOT BE LABELED. IT CANNOT BE SOLD.

WHEN LOVE BECOMES A BRAND, THE HEART BECOMES A CUSTOMER.

A COLLISION OF PHOTOGRAPHY AND WOOD SCULPTURE. THIS WORK MERGES DOCUMENTARY REALITY WITH HAND CARVED INTERVENTION, INSERTING SCULPTURAL ELEMENTS INTO LIVED MOMENTS TO REVEAL THE TENSION BETWEEN PROTECTION AND ILLUSION.

THIS ARTWORK IS AVAILABLE IN THE SIZES LISTED IN THE DROP DOWN BOX.
