Humans are symbiotic colonies / algos expand the borders of our selves / networks connect plants and animals This piece of digital art exists in superposed states, which the collector can choose from (9:16, square, 16:9), and was born with the support of UNHRD.
Why collect this work?
Métasymbiose crops a many-eyed head tightly against an orange field, making facial identity appear crowded, permeable and difficult to assign to a single organism.
- Jæn’s supplied statement describes a shift from pop-surreal line and colour toward a more conceptual digital practice. Here, exuberant mutation serves the stated concern with selves formed through symbiosis and networks.
- Striped appendages enter mouths and skin while small growths echo the surrounding turquoise forms. The repeated crossings confuse interior and exterior, supporting a reading of the figure as an ecosystem rather than an autonomous portrait.
- The catalogue documents pen, paper, Photoshop, After Effects, FL Studio and PhotoMosh Pro. These media allow drawn outlines and modelled volume to coexist with saturated digital accents, although the supplied still cannot establish movement or sound.
- The catalogue also records square, vertical and horizontal versions. Encountering these variants can test how a body conceived as composite changes when adapted to different screen proportions, linking format itself to the work’s treatment of mutable identity.
