Feticci of Happiness are three-dimensional works where painting, sculpture and poetry come together in a single artifact. Works made with the hands, shaped from their pure essence and raw material raw and returned in a new form. The elements used are canvas cuttings, acrylics, pigments, implementing a poetry adherent to recovery. Taking the image as an intimate photogram, then drowning it in dilutions of aqueous matter and allowing the color to be reborn as subtle vibration. The new form that the canvas absorbs, resurrecting as matter and air follows a procedure of an alchemical nature. "Wrap, crumple, every thought in color, squeeze between color canvas and me, as they run dinosaurs." Each fetish contains a message on the back, a stage of the infinite path to reach each time, a moment of happiness, enough to keep grasping circles in the void, touching parts black, bend the dawn into four parts.
