ORNAMENTAL GRIP

2024/25

This work was created using artificial intelligence and deliberately plays with the boundary between product design, luxury object, and artistic imagination. Its starting point was the everyday experience that champagne bottles are often difficult to open. From this banal observation, AI creates an exaggeration: a baroque, ornamented glove that merges functionality with exuberant aesthetics.

The glove does not exist as a real product — it becomes instead a symbol of the human desire to infuse even the smallest everyday gestures with meaning, ritual, and style. The work positions itself as an ironic commentary on consumer culture, design, and the promise of luxury.

As a print, the image reveals its intricate detail and demonstrates how AI can transform familiar objects into both fantastic and absurd forms.
