BULLSHIT
Oil, pastels, and gold polish on stretched canvas. - 2023
Work from the "SWORD" series:
BULLSHIT is a reflection on our free will and what we choose to do with it.
We start planning our lives as soon as we are able to think. We imagine it by drawing a route to follow that would go from point A to point B, with key stages: studies, work, couple, children, cats, house dogs. This cinematic projection of our life is a vision of what must legitimately happen to us.
Later, when we realize that the plan doesn't necessarily go as planned, the idea of destiny arises from this imaginative delirium. Luck, bad luck, fate are the names we give to forces, depending on whether they bring us closer or further from our plan.
So many forces invented to deny the choices to be made, and dominate events by our free will.
