Roman Minin — Human-Alien
Roman Minin

Human-Alien

2016

A striking sculptural work by Roman Minin, *Human-Alien* presents a figure rendered in bronze and divided into two distinct parts, blurring the boundary between the familiar and the otherworldly. The application of chemical metallization and silvering lends the surface a luminous, otherworldly quality, enhancing the tension between humanity and extraterrestrial identity. The duality of the piece — both in its split form and contrasting metallic finishes — invites reflection on what it means to exist between two worlds.
