'Man Versus Machinesβ is a portrayal of the human experience amidst the relentless march of technology. Amongst the downtown splendor, a solitary human figure symbolizes resilience and the enduring human spirit. Yet, the artwork also hints at an underlying tension, where modern existence is entangled with technology and we face the paradox of our reliance on the creations that both empower and constrain us. The omnipresence of machines surrounding the figure evokes a sense of being observed, as if hunted prey, by the very technology meant to serve us.
