Acrylic, Aerosol, Kandy Car Paint, Crushed Abalone & Surfboard Resin on "Metallic Tissue" Collage of Recycled Spray Cans and License Plates with Neon

Risk's symbols of peace emerge through the creation of metallic tissue pieces illuminated by a neon rainbow. Designed to represent all of mankind, these artworks convey a profound message - that with colors, we craft images, and with images, we have the power to create anything. Yet, juxtaposed against this creative potential is a poignant question: why, despite our ability to craft anything, do we struggle to create humanity? The vibrant visual language becomes a contemolative reflection on the complexities of our shared existence and the challenges of fostering true humanity.
