Street Art in Florence - Tomorrow will be worse
This
work belongs to a particular category of Street Art, close to Sticker Art. The
image, certainly made with the help of a computer, is printed on adhesive paper
then glued to the wall. The meaning is enigmatic and open to the most varied
interpretations, the references, which certainly exist, are indecipherable for
us.
The
drawing, moreover signed, creates an optical effect: it looks like a face with
mouth and lips, mustache and many eyes. But the mustache comes out of the mouth
and might be something else (vomit? hair?), and the eyes are actually a crowd
of unlit church wax lights. Around, in faded red ink, unknown if drawn by the
same hand of the drawing, a threatening writing: tomorrow will be worse.
Might
refer somehow to current events? The world upset by Covid-19? We don't know
when it was made and glued to the wall. Let’s think about it, but it takes a
lot of imagination! Florence, via Nuova de' Caccini.
