TEXT:
This body of work occupies a pivotal position in my artistic practice, engaging deeply with pressing social issues through a continuous series inspired by front-page articles from prominent publications, notably The New York Times.
The conceptual framework of this series is dedicated to addressing potent socio-political and cultural themes, rendering them in visually arresting and intellectually stimulating forms. Each piece is crafted to evoke a response from the viewer, encouraging reflection on their own place within the context of the artwork and the wider world.
Drawing on the evocative power of memory embedded in found materials, this body of work is influenced by the principles of Arte Povera. The incorporation of these distinctive materials is harmonized with a minimalist aesthetic and a clear conceptual intention. Here, conceptual content is given precedence over formal aesthetics, utilizing technical methods and strategies as tools to serve the overarching idea. Despite its idea-driven nature, the resulting body of work seamlessly integrates form and function, creating a cohesive and compelling visual narrative.
This series not only underscores the importance of the issues it addresses but also exemplifies the innovative potential of contemporary conceptual art, inviting viewers to engage in a meaningful dialogue about the world around them.
