Iron, Cement and Stabilized Bush
Fluxo is a series of works intended to evoke the relationship that exists between man and nature in an urban context. Nature in the city is as if it were dammed up where space advances, thus assuming a marginal role. In the life of every man, nature is instead contemplation of the divine, cyclicality, introspective research. It is simply life.
In these works, the message is clear, and to grasp it fully, one need only observe. The stabilised lichen,which in these works represents nature, is placed by the artist in the small concrete and iron architectures made from polystyrene shapes created to protect everyday objects.
Symbols of consumerism that are disruptive in contemporary everyday life, now rendered themselves cities in extreme synthesis.
1988 Milan, Italy
ALAN BORGUET (*1988, Milan, Italy)
Borguet’s career began when he was 13 years old when he took up Street Art. A little later, he found a job as an assistant at a contemporary art gallery in Milan, where he discovered, as he himself says, ‘his new awakening’, attracted by the sign and gestural art of the mid 20th century.
He therefore began to study artists such as Carla Accardi, Dadamaino, Capogrossi and Antonio San Filippo and fell in love with this offshoot of informal art as it was able to convey emotions immediately through gestural impulses.
Borguet defines himself as a multifaceted artist with the full awareness of being a medium through which the creative force finds its dimension. Each of Alan Borguet’s works carries with it a gift that is then perceivable to the viewer beyond the five senses.
The meaning of each work is not intended to be a limitation imposed by the artist, but to reach the innermost vision of each observer.
