Polyester resin
50 x 39 x 13 cm
The work of Lidó Rico focuses on the body, as an icon but also as a medium. Indeed, his own body constitutes the iconic material of his creations when he uses it as their mould. From this point of view, his work, on be corning a permanent reproduction of his corporeal shapes, could lead us to think that it is a personal, almost narcissistic exercise. However, the results show that nothing could be further from the truth.
in his works, Lidò Rico explores the loneless of mankind and its inner emptiness. The fear of defeat causes almost physical pain to his heroes, they disintegrate into parts, and they are absorbed by space.
Because Lidó Rico uses his body to express stares of pain and anguish that, what is more, do not refer to himself but to a generic individual: modern-day man. There is, therefore, complicity with the environment, meaning a commitment such as that acquired by artists in Franco’s time, although the very different circumstances of this period impose different discourses. It is not now about revealing the blatantly repressive conduct of power, but the state of disintegration that awaits the individual in this post-industrial society.

Framed: 68 x 93 x 3 cm Other editions in 3 sizes, 3-2-1 + AP To get a fresh look at natures beauty in a modern era, Zak van Biljon went beyond the visible spectrum to capture these vivid images. The technique, developed for military surveillance and crop surveys, captures near-infrared light: wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation that fall between what we see as red and the longer wavelengths used for thermal imaging. The pigment in plant leaves, chlorophyll, strongly absorbs visible light which they use as a source of energy in the process of photosynthesis. The cell structure of the leaves, on the other hand, strongly reflects near-infrared light. A strong absorption at these wavelengths would only result in overheating the plant and possibly damaging the tissues. The human eye is unable to perceive infrared light but it is exactly this reflected energy, which reacts with infrared-sensitive material to create electric pinks and vibrant reds. The idea of landscapes is not landscape by itself. Nothing exists by itself but only through perception. Our perception, however, is subject to both individual watching and classifying what we see. The classification is strongly subdued to the imagery with which we are confronted every day. The famous Windows computer desktop image “Bliss” and others of this kind have become a kind of nature of which we believe that is is “true” nature. Pictures of natures are not about falsifying nature itself but are reflecting our perception of nature. What kind of image do we have? On social media channels user are sharing zillions of filtered photos of nature...Category

- Diver UP! Blue ResinLocated in New York, NYVictor Spinelli was born in New York from and Italian family. Established in Ibiza, he attributes his origins in art to piloting a Hot Air balloon and travelling the world as a photographer. His works range from painting to sculpture and of course, photography. In 2019 he orchestrated the construction of an 8-foot wooden sculpture of my popular photograph “Diver UP” for Burning Man. The sculpture was torched on “The Mans” ashes after he burned to the ground and this symbolized metamorphoses of not only the evolution of Diver UP, but also a demarcation point in his career, thus beginning a new chapter within it. In 2020 he organizes the first edition of the Spin Art...Category
