In this provocative and thought-provoking piece by Garrick Hastings, the artwork is dominated by a red background with splatters of white and black, creating a raw and intense energy. The central figure is a distorted interpretation of the Vitruvian Man, overlaid with an eye-pyramid symbol, evoking themes of divine supremacy, enlightenment, and self-realization. The bold, chaotic text—”SUPREME,” “DIVINE,” “WAKE,” and “EVOLVE”—surrounds the figure, contributing to the piece’s message of personal awakening and empowerment. The word “I AM” placed across the figure’s body underscores the concept of self-affirmation and the power of identity. The dramatic contrast and abstract elements suggest both chaos and transformation, inviting the viewer to reflect on the journey of self-discovery and evolution.
