THIS ISN’T FOOD (Questo non è cibo) - [collezione privata]
Opera della serie Prison Brain (cervelli imprigionati) dove la spiegazione è la seguente: “siamo Imprigionati dalle convenzioni, dalle credenze, dalle educazioni sbagliate, dall’ambiente in cui viviamo, dai prototipi di comportamenti che ci vengono propinati dai media, dalle mode, dai complessi, dalle paure, dalle abitudini, dal lavoro sbagliato, dal denaro, dalla pigrizia mentale…………” L’opera THIS ISN’T FOOD si riferisce al rapporto dell’uomo con il cibo quando questo rapporto si altera diventando un’ossessione.

This work belongs to the series "Imprisoned Brains" where the drawing of a brain is printed on a plastic sheet and put on a layer of concrete on the canvas with a net pressing the plastic sheet in front, thus creating a swelling of the underlying material. The grid is secured to the net with wire and nails that mainly strengthen the idea of imprisonment. The previous works belonging to the series “Imprisoned Brains” referred to man in general, to citizens of a modern world they invented. Instead of making it progress from the intellectual point of view and making it evolve, man is stamped on and imprisoned: A prisoner of conventions, beliefs, wrong upbringing, the environment, the behavioural stereotypes inculcated by the media, fashion, complexes, phobias, habits, the wrong job, money, mental laziness. In my work “This Isn’t Food” the drawing of a brain is printed with the image of cherry tomato, that symbolizes the food, and a heart, drawn, wrinkled and crashed by the influence of the wrong idea of food.
