Hanging at an impressive six metres wide and two and a half metres high, this immersive diptych painting by artist Sinta Tantra reflects on the networks and systems that make up our globalised world. Fields of colour allude to the continuous blocks of information that fill our screens today, whilst pulsating white lines across the canvas represent movement, migration and connectivity. Even as we sleep, these global systems work tirelessly, continuously, so we don't have to. As physical boundaries become defined and redefined, the working day becomes blurred - day and night plateau onto a single plane, enabling transactions to be exchanged seamlessly, efficiently.

The use of gold leaf refers to the question of beauty and value throughout the ages. Areas of raw linen allow us to recognise the thin mask we so often apply on top of our own identities. For Tantra, revealing the organic threads of what lies beneath presents the complex framework of what makes us individual, human.
