“Future at Disposal” is a surrealistic artwork that intricately weaves a narrative of power, isolation, and the complex interplay between technology and nature in a dystopian future. The scene unfolds in a vast, futuristic cityscape dominated by towering skyscrapers and illuminated by an ominous, golden sky. A solitary figure stands atop a high platform, symbolizing the paradox of control and solitude in a world where everything seems to be within reach, yet the essence of human connection is missing.
The artwork juxtaposes the hyper-advanced with the timeless—spaceships and sci-fi inspired elements like dragons soar alongside modern helicopters and fighter jets, illustrating the coexistence of the fantastical and the real. This blend of the extraordinary and the ordinary reflects humanity’s relentless pursuit of progress, often at the expense of its connection to the natural world, represented here by the presence of giraffes roaming amidst the urban sprawl.
The roads and vehicles below signify the everyday lives of ordinary people, moving through their routines, largely disconnected from the high-stakes battle for power and dominance that rages above. Despite the monumental technological achievements, the human experience remains fraught with loneliness and a yearning for something more meaningful. The presence of nature within this futuristic setting serves as a reminder that, no matter how far we advance, we cannot escape our inherent need for connection, both with each other and with the world around us.
This artwork invites viewers to reflect on the duality of progress: the incredible advancements that can be achieved and the potential alienation that can result from a world where human values and natural elements are overshadowed by the pursuit of power and technological dominance.
