Nothing Lasts Forever
Good and bad times come and go, despite the current global situation this show is a self-dialog and a way to communicate feelings throughout a series of large scale murals.
These 12 murals were completed in a period of 3 months in Durango, Durango México - During the pandemic in complete isolation.
“Nothing Lasts Forever” is meant to create a positive impact while questioning the periods of emotions and events. All is temporary, as the bad times are upon us, good times are ahead.
Despite the pandemic the exhibition opened doors for the local community with all safe measures changing the perception of a public indoor installation. The space (400 m²) allowed 5 visitors at the time for a period of 5 minutes allowing the viewers interact with the space as well to experience the first time ever mural gallery show focused on typography.
Show.
Doors opened for the public only one day, allowing visitors to enter the space and interact with the artwork for 5 minutes in groups of 5 people. Every visitor wore a mask and took the necessary precautions.
The Beginning.
Sketches/Concepts.
Sketchbook process of every mural and space planning.
Space Development.
Originally a warehouse, the space became slowly a studio/gallery space experimenting with large scale lettering for a period of 3 months.
Tools used primarily were spray paint and latex paint, but also sprayers and other materials.
"Nothing Lasts Forever"
A mural gallery project born from a need to communicate feelings through typography and space.
