Lina Rica: SOO, OOO MUCH POTENTIAL

From a series SOO,OOO IT GOES

The silkscreens are based on found black-and-white photographs of landscapes and cities from the former Yugoslavia.

By adding texts to the existing images of places documented some fifty years ago, the artist comments on the current situation of the same places confronted with investments where the consumption of space is modelled around the idea of constant development and capital gain.
