This work was initially conceived, in 2017, as a half-length to be placed above a disused telephone booth and transformed into a library and collection point for literary and musical artistic events. This booth took the name of "Cabin of the widespread art", in Turin, born from an idea of the photographer Daniele D'Antonio. The sculpture remained above this cabin for more than 3 years until, after repeated vandalism suffered, it was decided to remove the work. Back in the artist's studio, Lele De bonis decided to restore and modify it in order to make it a self-supporting sculpture. Inspired by the vandalism actually suffered, the work was restored and built on a sort of pedestal as if it were still vandalized with spray cans. The materials used are wood, aluminum, and scrap metal recovered here and there. In the various photos of the work, the artist also wanted to insert one that takes up the original placed above the cabin.

Born in 1980, Lele De Bonis lives and works as a set designer for several companies in the theater, cinema, amusement parks and outdoor scenography sectors. At the same time he has developed a personal artistic path focused on the concept of recovery and assembly, through which he represents what strikes him most in real life. The human being is the center of his works and he usually represents it in a cynical and grotesque key, without ever condemning it. Wood and aluminum are the materials he uses the most. Beyond the message, their constructive juxtaposition allows him to play and experience infinite alchemical relationships between hot and cold materials. Starting from the concept of “ready made”, through his assemblages, Lele is constantly searching for an aesthetic dialogue aimed at creating a material and chromatic balance between the different materials within a composition. His works are a continuous alternation between explicit references to the current historical context and a more abstract, introspective research.
