NATURA MORTA (Still Life)
The poster is a still life of weapons and objects related to war.
I evoked the still life style as a representation of everyday objects as protagonists of the work, to place before the viewer’s eyes elements that sometimes we do not realise, but are an integral part of our lives; instruments of war, for defence, hunting, recreation, real or projected, toys or heavy deadly mechanisms.
They look at us to remind us of their daily existence and the title still life is exactly what weapons lead to, the death of nature.
