Iluminando sonrisas

This work is a piece of generative art, based on Agamben Giorgio’s perspective on “archaeology of the work of art”, in which it is proposed that art is nothing but the way in which the anonymous person we call artist, maintaining a constant relationship with practice, bases his way of life on happiness. Taking this concept, I made a humorous work that, through something as simple as a clown nose and crazy eyes, takes us back to our childhood, making the user interact and have fun in their own way, becoming part of the work itself.
