UNVEILING NYC
Like a silent observer of everything that surrounds me. My work is a satire of the weaknesses of our society. I want to make a statement and confront the spectator with a reality they don’t want to acknowledge.
Through the years I’ve been drawing and making a NYC Journal about what I saw and felt while discovering NY.
Paper-bags draw my NY skyline. They are the only things that all New Yorkers share under the same conditions without being a matter of gender, race or religion. From the Millionaire to the homeless, we all at certain point of the day had had a paper bag in our hands. Wherever you look you see either somebody with a paper bag or a paper bag by itself on the street... is it the urge to consume the only thing that unite us in this city?
All my drawings are born from a coffee stain, these stains remind me of politicians; of famous people, and of the people I see everyday walking in the streets.
To create this series I recycled the paper-bags I found in the streets of NYC.For me the paper bags are a mirror of our society: they represent our double standards and moral as well as our waste of the natural resources.
Unveiling NYC is a series of 250 drawings.
