About the artist

Between 2015-2025, TFT5DU used different expression modalities, including drawing, graphic arts, illustration, painting, lecture/performance, infographics, artist’s book, djing and vjing as a form of mystical and artistic exploration of the unknown. According to american artist Paul Laffoley, since 2001 we entered into a new artistic period he called the “Bauharoque“. “It combines the heroic modernism of the German Bauhaus, with the aspiration toward a technological utopia, and the exalted theatricality of the italian baroque, in which an exuberance of form and illusion serve to express the mystical union of art and life.”

Orgone theory by Wilhelm Reich describes energy as a spiral movement that moves forward. Starting from hand gestures that mimics this movement, and later solidifying it in ultra-precise painted surfaces and lines, the painting becomes a way to channel this invisible energy in constant movement that is at the base of all life. Reich called it "Cosmic Orgonic Energy".
