About The Artwork

Mural painting done by experiences with homeless people, painted onto the wall of an abandoned house The work of the series "inconsistencies" consist of urban interventions that portray the face of the homeless on the walls of abandoned houses. The artist goes on expeditions and searches in order to find and meet people who use the street as housing, and with their permission, he creates a large-format painting revealing their invisible identities. The paintings are done in precarious places, explicitly illustrating the living conditions of homeless people, and the wall becomes the witness of socio-cultural phenomenon. In large format, the irregularity and roughness of the wall comes to be confused with the lines of those portrayed. In this work, you may notice a curious but sad contradiction: While there are people without homes, there are houses without people. The work is based on many phases and procedures, and goes beyond the art object, where what matters most is the connection, integration and contact with the homeless, which are the living part of the work.

Alfredo Maffei is a visual artist, muralist and lecturer graduated in Visual Arts from the University of Fine Arts of São Paulo. His greatest quest as an artist is to create expressive works that touch people and inspire them to search within themselves for new ways of seeing the world and life. His works are charged with emotion and meaning, having already been exposed and performed in several countries such as France, England, Mexico and Germany. A striking feature of the artist's production is his ease in translating emotions and feelings through loose shapes, precise brushstrokes and expressive looks that seem to want to speak. Maffei works with different techniques and materials, mixing acrylic paint, pastels, spray and markers. Each work has its particularity and is designed according to the emotion and feeling that the artist wants to convey in that work, so there is no fixed way of working, each work has its natural, spontaneous process and its own identity, just like us. A referring theme in the artist's production is the search for ancestry and primordial essence that we all carry within us. His paintings tell stories about Warriors, Shamans, Healers and Mythical Beings who have inhabited our unconscious since time immemorial. The artist seeks to awaken and demonstrate this ancestral strength and power that inhabits us and that inspires us with power and wisdom.
