About the artwork

The digital artwork entitled "Walk This Way (reprise)" shows a series of identical silhouettes of walking figures, rendered in bright red with a black outline. These figures are spread across three horizontal rows and appear to be walking on a background of light grey bricks. The combination of uniformity and subtle variation in posture evokes a sense of rhythm, repetition and movement - as if the figures were part of a choreography or walking cycle.

The title "Walk This Way (reprise)" suggests repetition or reinterpretation, possibly a reference to an earlier work or to Aerosmith's iconic song. The word "reprise" emphasises the cyclical nature of the movements in the sculpture: the figures walk, but remain trapped in a pattern, with no destination or progression.

Despite the movement, the figures appear static - trapped in a two-dimensional space without perspective. This contrast between dynamism and stasis raises questions about routine, conformity and individual identity within a mass. The red colour possibly symbolises energy, passion or even danger, while the wall forms a barrier, both literally and metaphorically.

The work plays with the visual language of street art, icons and animation. The repetition of identical shapes gives an almost hypnotic effect, while the variations in body posture subtly create the impression of progress. "Walk This Way (reprise)" invites the viewer to reflect on direction, repetition and the human desire for meaning within seemingly routine movement.
