LA OBRA DE ARTE SOY YO

"The Future is about no more objects, no more canvases, it is about the viewer and it is also about while you are walking, you are the performance. You are part of an artistic manifestation reaffirming all humans as living art. Everything is an extension of this movement which expands the message, you are the Artwork.”

INSPIRATION

Inspired by the work of artist Tracy Emin, Paula created the phrase "La obra de arte soy yo" in neon and it was exhibited in a gallery during Art Basel 2013, the most important art show in the city of Miami. The original piece was an installation with a floating staircase that had the phrase in neon at the top. "It was a success, people just went to read the phrase, to take pictures, to say the I'm the artwork, but then Art Basel was over and when I went to put it away I said to myself: this can't stay in a crate, this must stay for longer." That's when she decided to paint over the streets of Miami's Design District with a stencil creating a movement that goes beyond art.
