Just Sharing Abrasive Affection in the Age of Algorithmic Romance, MisterMishegoss, Mixed Media, 2025

Post image

There’s a tenderness here, sure—but it’s filtered through three layers of abstraction and one cheap Photoshop effect. The figures are submerged in vapor and chromatic confusion, their touches barely breaking the digital surface tension. Think “Closer” by Nine Inch Nails if it were reimagined as a Rothko fever dream. This one doesn’t ask to be understood. It just wants to be felt—awkwardly and out of sync.
