Unmoored by Nathan Boey

[Daily.xyz](https://daily.xyz/exhibition/3020) - Post Photographic Perspectives II: Acceptable Realities is DAILY's second group show celebrating a new wave of innovation in AI video and photography. “Unmoored” seeks to challenge viewers by presenting familiar objects, locations, and tones in unexpected pairings. Drawing upon mundane characters, objects, and settings inspired by personal memories and life experiences, the work displaces these elements from their usual contexts, and challenges viewers to venture beyond the surfaces of the images to find new associations and deeper understandings. Ultimately, “Unmoored” reflects on the intoxicating allure of those moments when inspiration struck—a sensation akin to a drug that has captivated me since my youth. This feeling, characterized by the stimulation of entirely new neural pathways within the brain, serves as the driving force behind my creative pursuits.
