 Pelt (Heaven) 

Mixed media (Wood, metal, oil paint and ink on jeans)_160/50cm 

A skinned denim jacket with texts about music and hallucinatory substances on it. On the back is a star drawn with star studs in which a dead bird is painted. "Mue (Heaven)" takes up the metaphor of the artist's destiny in the face of a mercantile entertainment industry that Brian de Palma denounces in his film Phantom of Paradise, a film which was itself inspired by Gaston Leroux's novel The Phantom of the Opera. 

"Mue (Heaven)", after Brian de Palma's Phantom of Paradise, after Gaston Leroux's Phantom of the Opera, is a metaphor for the destiny of the artist in the face of a mercantile entertainment industry.
