Collection

Nine Lives Atelier

Description

The Wax Muse: A tactical reimagining of the feline muse through the dense, tactile lens of Proto-Pop and Neo-Dadaist tradition The Encaustic Emblems series, curated by Nine Lives Atelier, serves as the foundational counterpoint to the slick, commercial aesthetics of the digital age. While the movement would later evolve into the neon-drenched surfaces of mass culture, this chapter delves into the Proto-Pop roots. Inspired by the thick, beeswax-laden surfaces and muted, primary palettes of the mid-century avant-garde, this series transforms Simba Purrfect into semi-abstracted icon. By focusing on the "thingness" of the subject, the artwork invites the viewer to look at the surface as much as into the portrait. Each piece in this series is a unique 1/1 digital artwork, created through a meticulous collaboration between human artistic vision and advanced AI technology. By stripping away the electric glow and embracing heavy brushwork, stenciled forms, and rhythmic patterns, Encaustic Emblems explores the "thingness" of the feline form. It invites the viewer to experience the digital canvas as a physical artifact, where the boundary between a symbol and a portrait is intentionally blurred. This piece features a distinct digital signature, personally 'inked' by the muses in a raw, gestural style that honors the hand-wrought movement of the series.
