The work of AD-Reflex is about duality and unexpected juxtapositions of beauty and decay. Their art resists and transcends percep The collaborative duo, AD-Reflex, was formed in 2015 and consists of contemporary South African artists Johan Conradie and KarlGustav Sevenster. By referencing iconic art historical representations, AD-Reflex draws a parallel between representations of war and power, ra

nging from classical Greek constructs of heroic masculinity to the way ISIS recently used brutality against cultural artifacts, as a carefully considered ideology of cultural and religious purity. Their central figures show the scars of rituals and faithful violence.

The Muses, 2025
540 x 630 mm print size (600 x 720 mm paper size) - Edition 10

Digital print on textured 100% acid-free cotton rag archival / museum paper, signed and numbered.

“The muses” by AD-Reflex was specifically created as a limited edition print (1 of 10) that celebrates 10 years of collaboration between the artist duo. The work is characterised by a wealth of pictorial fragments with a flowing and somewhat deceptive spatial arrangement. Meticulously constructed digital elements, 3-D modelling techniques and scanned paint marks cohabitate in a world that explores the *plurality of fantasies shaping contemporary experience*. With a strong focus on process, the work morphs between abstraction and representation.

R5000 (unframed). AD-Reflex will assist with framing.

STATEMENT:
“Whirlwind” by AD-Reflex speaks to the human condition, our passions, insecurities, challenges, triumphs and failures, and showcases the subtle shift of awareness, understanding and the social unease of ‘privacy shields’. Simultaneously, the work reveals what is unique and authentic in people.

The work alludes in a playful manner to the dual nature in each of us. In our contemporary culture, the prospect of communicating with, or even looking at a stranger is virtually unbearable. On a metro, people tend to fiddle with their phones, even without a signal underground and use technology as a universal armor to hide behind. Smartphones become our security blanket that protect us from what we perceive is going to be more dangerous.
