The Creation of Statix

Reimagining Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam for an age of technological dependence, The Creation of Statix explores the shifting relationship between humanity and the machines it creates. Two television-headed figures reach toward one another, their fingertips nearly touching. But who is the creator, and who is the creation? What began as humanity shaping technology has evolved into something far more complicated. We have built machines in our image, surrendered pieces of ourselves to them, and increasingly allowed them to shape who we become. The familiar gesture of divine creation becomes a question of power, dependence, and identity. Perhaps the most unsettling possibility is that we can no longer distinguish the creator from the created.
