Guerra de la Paz is like a magician that can pull out an adorable bunny from a black tophat. Give them a shirt, and a whole new entity will come to life. Guerra de la Paz, Two Cuban artists Alain Guerra and Neraldo de la Paz, based in Miami presents a subversive parallel by using unconventional materials to convey a universal message.
Guerra de la Paz uses everyday t-shirts to form mosaic like sculptures that redefine waste. Recycled art has been spotted in many forms lately and the point has been made, there are ways to reduce waste without going dumpster diving like freegans or spending hours sorting out recyclables into 5 different trash cans everyday. The pieces are visually enticing while subtley implying that decadence can come from all resources and be manifested in various forms. The construction of the pieces see intuitive but to form a sculpture based around the conept of organized chaos is far from simple. Take a look at the strikingly sophisticated experimentation with t-shirts in the following pages.
