Farewell to Earth is a series of nine acrylic paintings, in the shape of pentagrams. For many societies, both ancient and contemporary, the pentagram is a symbol of transformation, rebirth and relationship between humans and the Universe. Painted with liquid chromium particles on the back, these pieces acquire a mirror-like quality, thus giving us back our physical presence in a virtual space and incorporating it into an unreal place, without a geography. This experience is intercepted by the reproduction of a set of urban icons with which the artist coexists on a daily basis. Visual noise, almost invisible, that emerges and takes place here.
