ICONS














“Mith is a tool to translate reality, mith is the explanation of a ritual-a formal way to express tribe needs-mith is a structure from the believings of the group.
Nowadays mith is evolving, changes, becames an icon, a commercial icon, sensual and “man-eater”, molding common ideas and archetypes.In the last decades art mokes on social and culture through the representation of new icons.
The idea of evoking superheroes-ancient mith through the modern view of the last 50 years-is not taken from an aestethic reason, is derived from the willing of represent the emptyness of the status symbol concept.
An iconography lascivious, lustful, audacious embeds contemporary heroes and generates the ethic clash between classic and modern mith.”
