NADA Miami 2024

“Heaven’s Door” is a realistic reproduction of a historical European gateway, made entirely from acrylic paint. After the artist creates the sculpture, he then attacks with an axe, exposing its true composition when the material splinters and the brightly-colored paint inside is revealed. The work, which has no function as a door, is a mere illusion, symbolizing the violent desire to go someplace else, and the futility of trying to overcome our physical limitations.
