ARTIST´S REST /Two weeks in Graz/ (2021)

GRAZ (AUT) - mixed media, trash, 28x18 cm.

It's the rest of my being in Graz. During the two-week residency, I collected the garbage I produced, and at the end of the stay I cut it, crushed it, ground it to pieces. After drying in the sun, I closed them in a jar. It is also a homage to Piero Manzoni and his famous work Merda d´artista. Nowadays, an artist's waste is much more conversion and toxic than an artist's shit or an artist's ashes. I firmly believe in that.
