ABOUT THE ARTWORK

TWWB! OVERDOSE ⚫?? See my latest paintings in my Instagram: We arrived in 2021 with the same hope that we started every year. The Dangerous Monkey is optimistic by nature. Perhaps the reality is too painful to face. Anyway, sooner or later it is imposed on us. We can philosophize about what reality is and skate forever - the ideal of the procrastinator. Or else to act firmly in the face of our best - even if limited - observations. Currently, the line between denying reality and being optimistic is extremely thin. Meanwhile, the stepping-stone to the precipice of chaos is even more present. I thought of putting a photo where I appear completely in front of this work. Maybe I would get more likes, compliments and the like. But I felt tiny, almost invisible, given its meaning. Disorder is on the way to becoming the rule. The colorful chaos, a range of opportunities, gradually surrenders to the monochromatic normalization of madness. Bananas barely manage to expose their history in the face of the magnitude of events. More and more is needed. The patient is no longer responding as before. The effect is no longer the same. Will nothing be like before? Increase the dose. It doesn't pass from the floor. Does it? OVERDOSE.
