The artwork stands as a definitive milestone highlighting the structural sophistication and conceptual weight of Cristian Hunter’s acclaimed All is Flux series. This compelling three dimensional wall sculpture actively disrupts traditional portrait dynamics by subverting commercial image velocity, freezing the fast consumption cycle of pop-culture media into a permanent tactile monument. Hunter meticulously transfers a close-up black-and-white portrait of global music icon Bruno Mars onto a premium forex acrylic base, artistically sculpting the physical substrate into a series of dramatic, topological undulations. The resulting deep creased fractures across the eyes and lips generate a magnetic spatial tension that forces viewers to reconsider traditional notions of celebrity identity and photographic representation.
Inspired by the power traditionally attributed to image, Hunter & Gatti wanted their works to perpetuate the wildfire velocity of fashion and the fast cycle of this industry which voraciously consumes any of the images they have created. In response, H&G started re-working celebrity portraits: taking recognizable faces that idealize the work, to give them a new origin, exploring concepts in perception, change, and identity, and playing with the tension between the material and the photography. Change is the only way to keep their pictures alive. All is flux wall sculptures, nothing stays still.
