Description
CONSUMMME features a bearded man sensually biting into a massive chunk of raw meat, serving as a metaphor for the raw appetites of contemporary consumerism, particularly in the realms of digital art, cryptocurrency, and NFTs. This visceral, almost primal act of consuming flesh mirrors the way individuals voraciously engage with art in the digital age—more as a commodity to be devoured than an experience to be savored.
Art is no longer about aesthetic contemplation alone; it has become about possession, ownership, and status. The oversized chunk of meat symbolizes the ever-expanding marketplace of digital art, where value is often measured not by depth or cultural significance, but by scarcity, hype, and market trends.
Furthermore, the rawness of the meat contrasts with the polished, hyper-digital aesthetics of crypto art, highlighting the tension between the primal nature of human desire and the sanitized, virtual world of digital assets. This duality underscores the paradox of digital consumerism: while the art itself is intangible, the desires it fuels are deeply physical and visceral. The bearded man, engrossed in his act of consumption, embodies this paradox—an insatiable hunger for more, despite the lack of true nourishment in the digital feast.

Stylistic framework:
"Naughty Thought" is part of a series of (neo-) expressionist artworks titled "Oh Look! It's Us!" by DocT. Rooted in the late 20th-century movement, Neo-Expressionism emerged as a rebellious force against the abstract and conceptual art of its time, giving prominence to emotional intensity and the raw tapestry of human experiences. Within this series, a kaleidoscope of distorted yet powerfully authentic reflections of reality and the intricacies of the human condition and the current Zeitgeist is unveiled.
The fusion of static and animated pieces beckons viewers to embark on a journey into the abyss of existence's disarray. Each digital stroke and frame has been meticulously crafted to encapsulate the very essence of our shared human plight. Through somewhat chaotic brushwork and vibrant hues, the series embraces the profound and illuminates the enigmatic and unsettling aspects of life in an almost visceral manner.
