Mixed techniques on paper - 82x64 cm each // Piramids by Koen Vanmechelen is a complex mixed media print from 2001 that examines themes of global connectivity, evolution, and biological diversity. The composition is divided into several sections, each depicting pyramidal structures titled Pyramid of Brains and Pyramid of Time, as well as maps and detailed images of chickens. These pyramids appear to be symbolic representations of hierarchy, knowledge, and the passage of time, with elements of science, nature, and geography interwoven. Vanmechelen, known for his work in biological art, integrates imagery of chickens to signify genetic diversity and human intervention in nature. This piece encourages reflection on the interconnectedness of life, cultural evolution, and the impact of human actions on natural processes.

What is Found Object?
A found object is a term used to describe a man-made or natural object, or a fragment of one, that an artist discovers or purchases and keeps for inspiration or as a work of art. The artist may also modify the object or incorporate it into a collage or assemblage, transforming it into a new piece of art.
