Relief 1997

This geometric Relief was made by Charles Bezie, using an unknown material that appears to be painted. The artwork presents a monochromatic palette, and the different shades imbue a sense of depth and structure to the seemingly simple arrangement of forms. It resembles the visual language of architectural models or industrial prototypes, where precision and functionality are valued. The method of production, seemingly modular construction, also speaks to standardization, and repetition, reminiscent of industrial processes. The precision in the creation of the artwork may indicate a degree of technological intervention in the making process. It invites reflections on the relationship between art, industry, and the aesthetics of mass production. The material used and the making process play a pivotal role in shaping the artwork's meaning, inviting us to question conventional hierarchies between art and craft.
