"After traveling through two solo exhibitions and one group show, decorating mornings from a wall in an office, now back home—only to continue the journey. This time, with no return, in search of a new owner who will love you as much as your creator did.

A King for Fools #1 and #2 speaks of the overconsumption of a fashion imposed by the media, invading our eyes and conquering our desires—pushing us to always want the newest and most novel things in our hands. For those who cannot keep up, they are condemned to the rarity of being 'out of fashion,' forever longing for what others have.

No one has more than the one who owns the most—our king, the creator of all that you desire but can never have!

But what if I oppose your rules and find contentment in very little? What if I refuse to fall in love with advertisements, let alone your latest creations? Having the car of the year, a luxury home, the newest phone every six months… None of that makes me happy. Instead, it binds me to wasting precious time in pursuit of material goods.

Life, to me, is something else entirely. Though, in the end, everyone is bound to their own idea of happiness and fights to achieve their dreams."
