This work stage a pungent reflection on the value and power of money. The repetition of one-dollar bills, deformed into a fluid motion that converges toward a point, recalls the idea of flow, as if money were a moving energy. The choice to incorporate a real faucet, from which money seems to gush, amplifies the conceptual dimension: money as a liquid, manipulable, and at the same time illusory resource.

In this way, the artist does not merely represent money, but stages it as spectacle and paradox: an inexhaustible source of desire, but also a symbol of a power that slides away from and escapes the hands.

The work is a digital painting on 350 g canvas, the faucet is iron, the drop is resin with an iron core.

Shipping is insured. The package is carefully packed

the drop is shipped separately from the faucet, to be screwed onto the faucet (by hand). this ensures a safer shipping.

"It is never easy to classify one’s art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
