FAKE WALL PAINTINGS

Articulated in form of a triptych, each panel depicts a different stage extracted from the same process of social transformation. The way the image is composed, the simplification of historical events, as well as the (simulated) quality of the materials, help to frame this paintings in the long tradition of monumental artworks created to serve the established power: from Roman reliefs to medieval tapestries, until Socialist Realism murals. They are playful imitations of neglected historical remains, representing revolutionary times yet to come but contemplated from the distance of an hypothetical future, with the detachment and perspective of the elapsed centuries.
