Artwork Description:
This portrait draws upon the spectral image of Griffin Musk, Elon Musk's son, conjured by the artist following a virtual encounter with a self-proclaimed Musk. In the labyrinth of the digital age, identity fragments and proliferates, dissolving into the circuitry. The multiplication of celebrity simulacra renders the boundary between illusion and reality ever more porous, inviting us to question the very substance of presence.
