ARTIST HIGHLIGHT – CLEOPATRA FEVER DREAM

What is this place? That question is right on point when you see this, the amazing, ‘feverish’ world of Cleopatra.fever.dream art! And it is exactly the one you did ask yourself when you were sick, laying in bed with high fever, hardly moving, with your eyes half closed so the only thing you could do was mumble and watch this crazy, clay-like looking world around you that didn’t make any sense? No? Some did. If not this then maybe you do have an experience of lucid dreaming behind you or hallucinations, to sound more familiar? Not really, well, how about seeing the old-school animated movies for kids, created manually back in the 60’s, like Aventures de Colargol called also Barnaby Bear or Jeremy, depending where you live?

Well, that’s exactly what the dream of Cleopatra is like. Experimenting with Midjourney AI, the artist seemed to find their very unique way of squeezing the most out of synthography and suck the viewer deep into the rabbit hole, down to the world of childish, a bit odd yet bright and joyful aesthetics. The work of Cleopatra.fever.dream speaks to the viewer in a way where they can actually feel it. It’s not scary, nor disturbing, exactly opposite, filled with color, glitter and surprise makes you want to get more of it. Like walking around the unknown city and looking forward to seeing what is hidden behind the next corner. Go see it for yourself, and expect the unexpected. No fever this time.
