Techno Dada is a painting created for Art Miami 2011, for a group exhibition titled Wired. The name of the model, Dada, and the technological theme of the show naturally converged into a title that hints at a form of technological Dadaism.

The work portrays an attractive, semi-dressed model in latex, smoking a jack cable as if it were a cigarette. The gesture is playful and unsettling at once — desire and circuitry intertwined, seduction filtered through technology.

While the painting technique is highly realistic and rooted in classical discipline, the chromatic choices push the scene into a luminous, contemporary dimension. The result is a deliberate tension: tradition meets provocation, flesh meets cable, irony meets precision.

Techno Dada reflects on a world increasingly “wired,” where technology is no longer a tool we hold, but something we inhale — intimate, addictive, and inseparable from identity.
