Magnus Gjoen (1979) - Not Every Cloud Which Darkens the Sky Brings Rain

Magnus Gjoen's evocative work treads a fascinating line between humour and horror. By offering a modern take on old masterpieces, and transforming items typically associated with violence into delicate works of art, Gjoen challenges our preconceived notions of beauty. His work combines Street Art, Pop Art and Fine Art sensibilities, and highlights humanity's capacity for creating immense beauty one minute, and mass destruction the next. In Not Every Cloud Which Darkens the Sky Brings Rain, Gjoen adorns a lethal rocket launcher with flowers, suggesting the potential power of a missile made of beauty. The piece invites the observer to consider what life could be like if we decided to spread love over hate. From a limited edition of 25, this rocket launcher of love and beauty is signed and numbered by the artist.
