FORGOTTEN
ART TOYS II
This piece takes as a starting
point the Surprise Boxes, those that when moving the crank comes a doll driven
by a spring that surprises and awakens children's laughter.
But this surprise box holds a
reality in which many children live whose countries are at war.
Four children's drawings adorn
this box, and tell a story, talk about war, flight, glimpse of hope, fall into
abandonment.
But a child does not stop
dreaming, and the threads that bind him to reality let them fly so he can
continue playing.
Our child is a puppet of war.
This Art Toy belongs to the
series we have called "RIGHTS IN
CRISIS" (“CRISIS DE DERECHOS” in spanish). It is the seventh and last work that belongs to
this Series that we have made expressly for this Exhibition.
One of a kind Art. Unique.
