The inner universe as a realm of consciousness, where lost images transform into cosmic objects - dusty fragments of the past, periodically drifting by like fossilized phantoms. These remnants, fleeting and elusive, often vanish from sight and may forever burn away in the atmosphere of forgetfulness. The external cosmos, in turn, mirrors these internal processes, where chaos and order intertwine to create a space for new interpretations, metaphors, and reflections on the very nature of the universe.
The role of a guide in this narrative is embodied by the figure of the Laboratory Mouse. Even in its form as a hand puppet, it becomes a symbol of life in a post-human world, where the boundaries between organic and artificial, living and mechanical, dissolve. This world, shaped by the rise of artificial intelligence and rapid technological progress, redefines traditional notions of human experience, giving way to entirely new forms of awareness and existence.
Beyond its profound philosophical foundation, ASPENCROW's work is distinguished by its meticulous technical approach. The artist demonstrates an obsessive attention to the quality of his art objects, where every element holds significance. This precision is evident in his hyper-realistic figurative works as well as in his conceptual and abstract creations, where accuracy and craftsmanship serve as the core of his artistic vision.
In his creative practice, ASPENCROW frequently employs recurring elements such as satire, irony, deliberate imperfections, erosion, or the intentional absence of detail. His works are often characterized by monumental scale and a monochromatic palette, reflecting the influence of his region of origin. Additionally, a notable aspect of the artist’s visual language includes inflatable objects and hyper-realistic forms inspired by pop art. These motifs, developed during his Bachelor studies in England, became an important part of his artistic identity.
