Milton Wes Art
Shiny and Vanished - High-Quality Artwork Encased in Frames
Introducing an Exclusive Art Piece · Limited Quantity · One-of-a-Kind Artwork
Titled Shiny and Vanished, this creation by Corey Wesley delves into the themes of ambition, burnout, and the toll that modern interpretations of success can take on one's emotional well-being. After watching an interview with Emma Grade, the co-founder of SKIMS, Wesley was inspired to reflect on the sacrifices individuals make in their relentless pursuit of perfection.
Within like, a striking portrayal unfolds, symbolizing the drawbacks of the relentless work ethic prevalent in society. Portraying a woman divided between clarity and distortion, the artwork illustrates not a shattered figure but one gradually fading away. Infused with vibrant hues of red, black, and gold, the piece encapsulates the gradual erosion caused by societal pressures and unrealistic standards of flawlessness. Through this composition, Wesley presents a poignant representation of the price one pays in a world where success often demands self-negation.
