- Volti nella demolizione
Recentemente l’artista Alexandre Farto, noto come Vhils, ha realizzato in un’area demolita di Shanghai delle opere sulle rovine delle case distrutte.
I ritratti sono stati incisi sulle pareti con trapano, scalpello e martello.
Poiché le creazioni si trovano su mura di case in una zona in fase di imminente smantellamento, presto verranno distrutte.
Queste opere rappresentano un processo di creazione nella distruzione.
Vhils, nato nel 1987 a Lisbona, attualmente vive e lavora tra Londra e Lisbona.

Ciao! My name is Dominique. I’m Italian and I’m proud to be a mix. My father was an Italian chemical engineer and high school teacher, with Greek and Polish heritage. My mother is Haitian, she was high school language teacher, with Dominican, Spanish, French, Portuguese, African and Native American heritage. Being a mix makes me appreciate to want to understand different cultures and lifestyles. I grew up in Italy, lived few years in Haiti, travel around main European capitals, lived seven years in China, six in Spain and UK. Traveling makes me feel that we can learn something from every situation in every part of the world.
