WE LOVE CRACKS

ABOUT THE ART FOR THE PROJECT
In an executive office, once bustling with ambition and the clatter of commerce, there now lies an eerie silence. The room stands empty, its purpose seemingly abandoned. The most telling feature is the window, vast and clear, save for a single, jagged crack running from one end to the other.
This crack in the window serves as a poignant symbol for the devaluation of money over time. Just as the integrity of the glass has been compromised, so too has the value of currency eroded through inflation, economic policies, and the relentless march of time. Each day, the purchasing power of money diminishes, much like the widening of the crack with each passing season, unnoticed until it becomes too significant to ignore.
The office, now a relic of what once was, mirrors an economy where the once-solid promises of financial stability have given way to the fragility of economic forecasts and the unpredictability of global markets. The crack, visible yet ignored, reminds us that without vigilance, what we value can degrade, leaving behind only the hollow shell of past prosperity.
You can also purchase the complete set of seven posters here and have them delivered to your home!

RYR is an artist who started out on the streets, honing his artistic skills through graffiti, before moving into the studio where he continued to explore his interest with contemporary obsessions in a medium that, it could be said, has an extra value. He makes his artworks out of money; not completely out of usable banknotes, as the artist admits himself, but also from a handcrafted paper. His pieces contain symbols that are already present all around us, and also texts and letters that do not always convey a straightforward message.
