The piece is one of the IBD series. In the "IBD" (Imperfections By Design) series I have a specific idea, or obsession, of bringing the dialogue between perfection and imperfection into colors. My canvases are composed of two sections. The first one is essential: on the left there is an area cut in two by golden ratio and painted with flat colors. This represents the perfection, reaffirmed again on the bottom right. The canvas' size, however, doesn't respect golden ratio, which means that there is a section left where imperfection is brought to life. In that space the painter can tell the rest of the story: he can be childish, self-destructive, poetic, provocative, a simple carpenter. The imperfection is the human sphere. The dialogue between perfection and imperfection creates an accomplished piece.
IBD_7 (SUN) talks about the violence of the hot weather through the burning yellow and red. All is ironically inflamed by the substitution of the sun by a piece of barbed wire set into the canvas.
