About The Artwork
LET THE SUNSHINE IN is about a girl who hangs up balloons to brighten up the world. She wants to bring some warm sunlight into her gloomy surroundings. The original painting was made on a large canvas. "Medley: Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In", normally also called "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In", "The Age of Aquarius" or "Let the Sunshine In", is a medley of two songs from the 1967 musical Hair. The lyrics were written by James Rado and Gerome Ragni, while Galt MacDermot wrote the music. Children inspire me. Their ability to transcend any difficult situation is amazing. Playing tag in the ruins of a bombed-out city. Playing football in the most miserable neighbourhoods. They are always looking for the light. They save the future that our generations really messed up and don't even blame us for it. If only we could keep the child in ourselves a bit more, we wouldn't be in such a mess. Art can help us find our childlike innocence again Size: 120 x 80 x 4 cm (unframed) / 120 x 80 cm (actual image size) Mixed Media on Canvas One of a kind artwork Signed on the back This artwork is sold unframed Technique: Acrylic and Collage on canvas Theme: Street art, Pop art, Graffiti, Girl, Balloons, Colors quality: Amsterdam colors: Red, Yellow, Pink, Green, Blue, Aqua, Orange, Black ;high luminosity, without fading, non-toxic Signed certificate of authenticity Ready to hang Made in 2023

I assemble original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink and pencil in my works. The variety of resources I am able to use has proved indispensable to me. The biggest challenge the collage medium posed was its unforgiving lack of transparency. Finding a way to replicate the effects of transparency afforded by paint, especially water colors, was “a large victory” for me . The preparing labor shows through in my collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces. I believe my body of work is characterized by my skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, I revive this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of my work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation.”My tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful possible way to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
