About The Artwork

This is a Limited Edition Part Sculpture of the Work "You was supposed to Bring Balance to the Force not Destroy It!" made in 2012 This Limited Edition contains Four Elements of Three Primary Colours, Blue, Red & Yellow & White Light, hand-made and painted onto Wooden Building Blocks, similar to "Jenga" Tower It was inspired by the events of the collapse of the World Trade Center, New York after 9/11 and is a narrative journey inspired by the real life account of events of a friend whom used to work at the World Trade Centre, and with her story of Escape by the Brooklyn Bridge. Simple Four letter words taken from poetry written by Heroes on the front line with contrasting perceived Villains have been superimposed onto a Playable 'Jenga' Sculpture. The Four Letter Words have been wrapped around the blocks to hide and reveal to engage the viewer to decipher the code and solve the puzzle. The Sculpture is made up of a standard four, eight or twelve unit square block sprayed painted with Primary Colours of either Yellow, Red or Blue superimposed with hand-painted text. The varies size blocks have been Balanced with Gravity (Gravity is a Force) on one another from a natural equilibrium between Good (Heroes) and Evil (Villains). The tittle of 'You was supposed to Bring Balance to the Force not Destroy It!' has been taken from a quote of the Star Wars film in which Anakin Skywalker turns from the Good to Evil side to Darth Vader!

UK-based Vinci Art is a Conceptual Artist and Post Pop Artist best known for his abstract use of repetitive vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines superimposed with four-letter words forming a playable word search “The idea or concept [Conceptual Art] is the most important aspect of the work, and I use any medium [painting, digital, printmaking or sculpture] to convey the idea to the piece of Fine Art” The Artist is interested in the interaction between opposites, yin & yang, war & peace, love & hate, rich & poor, and life & death. The Artist juxtaposes these contrasts with the innocent of Toys and Games used in our youth. His most recent body of work Style Series is influenced by De Stijl after Piet Mondrian [1872-1944]. De Stijl is Dutch for "The Style", also known as Neoplasticism was a Dutch art movement. De Stijl advocated pure abstraction and universality by a reduction to the essentials of form and colour; they simplified visual compositions to vertical and horizontal, using only black, white, and primary colours. His previous body of work includes the "Berry Series" influenced by textiles and cloth of “Plaid” or tartan one of the most widely used patterns in history. The work used a combination of vertical stripes and horizontal stripes with transparency to the underlayer. The stripes follow a sequence or order from dark to light, known as Conceptual Art The previous body of work includes "Flags of the World" which communicates with viewers through linguistics, semiotics, and cryptography. The series includes English, French, Italian, Spanish, German, and American Flags superimposed with four-letter words of their respective language forming a playable word search from A to Z. His previous works include, "Retro Celebrity Stars", which is a homage to celebrities of our past from the films of the Hollywood Golden Era, to the present day. Every one of these individuals helped create the world we live in today, and though we know their names, their actual images might be fading from our memory. "Disasters of War", is a homage to Heroes and Villains from World War I & II, by the use of humorous and tongue-in-cheek language to explore the more serious issues of the past to the present day. Heroes and Villains are portrayed in life, death, and immortality by the use of toys of our innocent youth. The toys are used as a satirical look at the “Disasters of Wars” revealing shock and truths of war and violence in a playful way.
