Clint Enns – Drinking Alone

A man sits slumped in a dimly lit basement room, surrounded by countless beer bottles that cover the floor like a sea of ​​glass. Wood paneling, Christmas garlands, a neon light: the setting seems frozen in the 1980s, a place of nostalgia—and neglect.

Clint Enns' " Drinking Alone" is more than a scene of excess. It depicts the melancholy of isolation, the failure of the celebration that never took place. The patriotism of the T-shirt acts as a bitter commentary: It's not just an individual drinking, it's a part of American mythology lying drunk on the ground.

In this image, the AI ​​reveals less the ritual of drinking than its emptiness. Humor only shines through as a shadow—the farce of a self-destruction that has long since become routine. It's a portrait of loneliness so exaggerated that it almost seems comical.
