The Surrender of What We Still Are to a New Genesis
Oil on canvas 150x 120cm
The work The Surrender of What We Still Are to a New Genesis represents the union between natural humanity and its artificial creation, suggesting a future in which both realms merge, giving rise to a new form of existence. This union not only raises the possibility of a consciousness beyond the human, but also the uncertainty about the nature of the relationship between the two: it could emerge as a mutual collaboration, with artificial creation assisting humans in their evolution, or this consciousness could become autonomous, constructing itself and developing its own paradigms. The painting opens the door to reflection on the future of being, questioning what it means to be human in an era where the artificial could transform, complement, or even redefine our essence. The work, therefore, not only poses philosophical questions, but also invites exploration of the possibilities of coexistence—or even a transmutation—toward a new genesis.
