In “BOWZANTINE ANGEL,” the transformative vision of David Bowie as a cybernetic celestial being unfolds with intricate detail. Drawing inspiration from Byzantine religious art, the piece portrays Bowie as an ethereal entity, his hair interwoven with mechanical elements, forming a halo reminiscent of spiritual auras in classic religious paintings. Surrounding his body is a meticulously crafted tapestry of individual cogs, representing a myriad of potential influential elements.
Within his body, these cogs are absorbed and integrated, becoming part of his mechanical physiology—interlinked to function as a unified system. This integration allows the bots to move and express through Bowie’s body. This cybernetic angel transcends time and tradition, prompting reflection on the convergence of technology and spirituality in the ever-evolving landscape of identity.
