THE THRANSUMANCE OF THE FOOLS

Mixed media on canvas, 160 x 160 cm, 2020

Covid-19 Series N° 3

In a surreal, storm-tinted sky, humanity drifts atop enlarged viral forms, suspended between disorientation and denial. Figures ride the spiked silhouettes of pathogens as if they were unstable vehicles, suggesting the absurd choreography of a world attempting to navigate crisis with fragile balance. A suited man with an exaggerated red tie advances confidently despite the chaos beneath his feet, embodying misplaced certainty in a time of collapse. Road signs float without direction, pointing toward nowhere, reinforcing the sense of collective confusion. The painting becomes a satirical tableau of the COVID-19 era, where individuals move blindly through a landscape reshaped by fear, misinformation, and the illusion of control.
