Original artwork description:

When you walk on the street and finds an old broom stick, what would you do? A double face buffoon of course!!! That's what I did with this stick I found in the streets of Paris. I actually made this piece when I was living there back in 2000. Originally was made with flour, le Parisien and Figaro sheets and water. It represents anger and fear as two sides of the same identity.

After many moves and years the original materials cracked was almost lost. Just recently I decided to restore it and make it indestructible with fibreglass coat, new paint and epoxy. Now you can smash things up without hesitation (well...figuratively speaking of course, it's not meant for that). You can parade with it in Venice or scare kids in Halloween. Just to name two functional uses to DOUBLE FACE ON A STICK

Materials used:

fibreglass, epoxy, wheat flour, newspaper, broom stick and resin
