AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"Modern Medicine" are famous provocative works by the British urban artist Imbue, often nicknamed by the media as the "Banksy of Brighton".

The works are presented as large three-dimensional medicinal capsules, made of colored plastic (via 3D printing) and inserted inside a giant realistic transparent blister with a metallic back, identical to those of real medicines.

Packaging plays a fundamental role. The works are distributed in personalized boxes and the back of the blister features a holographic motif with the Imbue logo.

This work is:

"YIN YANG PILL"
The quest for chemical balance:
Yin and Yang traditionally represent the perfect balance between opposing and complementary forces in the universe. Imbue inserts this symbol on a pill to ironize how contemporary society no longer seeks spiritual or inner harmony, but tries to achieve "peace" and mental balance through the use of drugs, psychoactive substances, or chemical agents.
