DEMO - HELLSPIRES Pedro De Kastro Giclée Art Prints
Regular price $54.00
Since I was a child, in the 70s, I have been haunted by hellish nightmares where my Lisbon is a world of shadows from a nuclear Apocalypse - caused by Man to himself. These infected dreams persist until this very day, with other capitals as well - like New York, whose spires have always allured me - hurled into a far future but they are so vivid that I feel as if I have been in that forgotten future before.
In the foreground, The Mad Bishop seeks redemption in vain for the lost souls who dwell in the dantesque Chrysler Tower. Below him, in the lower-left corner of the infernal composition, Nukie, a crawling innocent survivor of an atomic attack stares at us through the round lenses of his gas mask.
My art reflects on the contemporary situation of the planet. When I recreate an entire landscape reshaped by the occurrence of a catastrophic Nuclear War, or Climate Change doomsday events, I show, or at least I try to show, in the middle of all this nightmare, that the world where we live is, even with all the misfortunes that haunt it, a planet with beautiful things where one can live. Where one can see the sky. Where the sea is blue. Where the plants are green. Where the Sun shines. Where one can breathe. For the time being.
