Joshua Goode’s artistry is a fascinating fusion of historical depth and contemporary zest. His sculptures, which blend ancient relics with pop culture icons, create a playful yet profound commentary on the nature of time and memory. By crafting faux archaeological artifacts that seem to belong to a bygone era, Goode invites viewers to question the authenticity and value we assign to ancient objects versus modern creations.
His work, often described as anachronistic, challenges the boundaries between ‘high’ and ‘low’ culture, suggesting that the significance of art lies not in its age but in its ability to connect with people across different eras. Goode’s staged excavations and the creation of the fictitious Aurora-Rhoman civilization are a testament to his innovative approach to art, where he not only creates physical sculptures but also weaves a rich narrative that spans across imagined timelines.
