The Mart Signed Museum
For years the project Where Are You Street Art? has told the journey of street art through authentic fragments of urban walls, symbolically bringing the street inside homes, galleries and private collections.
With this new series, The Mart Signed Museum is born, a natural evolution of my artistic research.
I asked myself what happens to a work when it finds its definitive place. A museum protects it, preserves it and hands it over to the future, but at the same time it restrains it. It can remain hung on the same wall for decades, watched by millions of people, without being able to continue its journey.
From this reflection comes the idea of a museum in which some works symbolically decide to break free. Each piece appears as a fragment torn directly from the museum wall. Not only is the artwork carried away, but also a part of the wall that housed it, transforming the museum itself into an integral part of the work.
Each collector does not simply purchase a painting, but an authentic fragment of the Mart Signed Museum, becoming the next stop on their journey.

The work

The Damascus-like wall, the frame, the museum label and the sign are not simple decorative elements, but are part of the artwork itself. The sign invites reflection on a society increasingly accustomed to photographing every moment. Some moments, however, deserve to be lived first.

Materials and authenticity

Natural imperfections, marks and dents of the materials are not defects, but an integral part of the work. They tell their story and contribute to making each piece unique.

The work is delivered ready to be hung and is accompanied by the certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
