    Artist: Angela Gomes
    Title: Don't talk... Shoot!
    technique: real Uzi / swarovski / Goldleaf/ Epoxy
    Size: 30.5x59x4 cm
    Edition: 1/1, unique piece

    "Don't Talk...Shoot!" is not merely a piece of art; it's a profound statement encapsulated within a single, striking composition. Crafted by the visionary artist Angela Gomes, this masterpiece challenges the viewer to confront the complexities of power, violence, and communication in our modern world.

    At its core, "Don't Talk...Shoot!" is a potent symbol of the paradoxical nature of human interaction. The juxtaposition of a real, deactivated Uzi adorned with lavish embellishments of gold leaf and Swarovski crystals is immediately arresting. It demands attention, forcing us to reckon with the unsettling fusion of beauty and brutality.

    The Uzi, a symbol of lethal force and conflict, is encased in a block of epoxy resin, emerging halfway from its golden encasement. This duality of concealment and revelation speaks volumes about the layers of meaning hidden within the artwork itself.

    The choice of materials is deliberate and evocative. The opulence of gold leaf and the brilliance of Swarovski crystals stand in stark contrast to the weapon's intended purpose. It's as if the artist seeks to disarm the violence inherent in the Uzi, transforming it into an object of contemplation and introspection.

    Yet, "Don't Talk...Shoot!" refuses to offer easy answers. Instead, it provokes a dialogue about the role of communication in conflict resolution. The title itself is a stark directive, challenging us to consider the consequences of silence versus action in the face of adversity.

    As the viewer grapples with the multifaceted layers of "Don't Talk...Shoot!", they are compelled to confront their own relationship with power and violence. It serves as a potent reminder of the urgent need for dialogue, empathy, and understanding in a world too often defined by division and discord.

    Truly, "Don't Talk...Shoot!" is more than just a work of art; it's a call to action—a rallying cry for a more compassionate and connected humanity. And as the sole embodiment of its message, this singular masterpiece stands as a beacon of hope in a world desperate for change.
  • Sur l'artiste

    Née à Amsterdam, Angela a toujours aimé tout ce qui brille. Avec son père étant un orfèvre, cela fonctionnait vraiment dans la famille.

    De plus, elle voulait faire la même chose qu'Angela n'était pas tout à fait prête et commencer à travailler ailleurs. À un moment donné, elle a commencé à travailler sur des crânes d'animaux, les décorant avec divers matériaux.

    Après cela, sa créativité a explosé et l'a amenée là où elle est maintenant… créer toutes sortes d'art.

    Elle dit; « Apporter mes mots sans utiliser de mots jusque dans les moindres détails est mon objectif ».
