About this artwork
“Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction." ― Pablo Picasso”
The Construction and Joy of Destruction is a new colourful series of artworks for 2020.
Based on classical paintings and sculptures, attacked by the artist with paint and humour. Destruction is a structure that is broken down to pieces unseen by the eye; sometimes these pieces are more within what only one eye can see.
In art we destroy too create but in real life we… can Not destroy our history and lie about the past, as we all have to learn from history. It's our only way to move forward and try not to repeat the mistakes of past generations. The Joy of destroying, brings about society's deconstruction. Everything must change and everything must go at some point , its the law of nature, the reality of time. But if we erase our past we can not embrace our future.
