spray paint and posters forget. For Portuguese artists, Alexandre Farto, it's all about acid, bleach, hammers, chisels, drills and stencils.
wheel, or what? Here's what he has to say:
"The development of this type of work is essentially two bases: one is graffiti in its destructive side, I have been connected for many years, the second is the stencil technique I discovered while I was looking for new ways that may bring me a new way of communication to express I received from the first, the concept of destruction as a creative force -. based on this idea, I developed a way of working , uses the distance, degradation or destruction. the concept is the idea that by a number of influences that are all over the old layers, etc. form, coming from the area where we grew up. in a very symbolic nature as I believe that if we remove some of these layers, other that show we can we get this over with, forget things left some of the material to the surface. still a part of what we are today
technology will things change so fast that we have not enough time to think about what (new layers) changed what concerns us. I try to emphasize this process in general, my work can be seen as a kind of archeology that tries to understand what is hidden behind things. These ideas were expressed, when I began to experiment with the template technique and to understand that I could return the process to have more influence: instead of creating during levels add, I examined the idea of creating by removing layers. I experimented with this process several methods - cluster of posters cutting, screen printing ink corroded with acid, etc. -. And of course, things began a brutal and raw form to win
If I the idea was out on the wall, of course, to work with this removal concept, this negative. The process itself can be brutal and violent, but the result in my opinion is, expressive and poetic. The result was visually interesting and allowed to start the wall as one of the physical components of the intervention to take over, as opposed to what happens to the image, where the wall is a base. From there was the use of explosives is another step that developed after much research and testing. These test phases are really nice to do something, it's actually a pleasure, and it usually results in a main part of my work. "-Alexandre Farto
