Son of Man Too?

Catalogue note

A figure in a dark suit and bowler hat stands before a flat blue sea and cloud bank, a red tie the single saturated accent, but the face is replaced by a green QR code. The homage to Magritte’s anonymous bourgeois is recoded for a surveillance economy, wryly equating identity with scanable data. The rendering is deliberately smooth and deadpan, letting the conceit carry the weight.
