Ephemeral works

The Street as a Medium for Art

Towards a Poetics of Space

“The daily journey through urban spaces changes our personality and makes us into habitual beings who obey rules that nobody questions.  The artist can create ephemeral expressions that, by generating completely new events, transform urban “linearity” and at the same time inject an element of surprise into urban routine. These ephemeral works are a way of producing different readings of urban spaces and of deconsecrating the utilitarian objects of urban furniture.”
