“Non c’è tempo per la guerra”

For this mural, the artist was inspired by Gordon Tarpley's sculpture "No time for love," finding the materials and composition appealing and fitting to the format in which he wished to paint. He changed the word "love" to "war," causing a profound reflection on the tragedies we are witnessing that affect society and the environment at the same time, thus attempting to understand how much and how we can save what is still possible both for ourselves and, most importantly, for future generations. 
 

Etienne Cristoffanini is a multidisciplinary artist born in Chile, who creates artworks that combine naturalism and abstraction. He obtained a bachelor's degree in plastic arts from the University of Chile in 2012 and a painter's degree in 2013. He also earned a postgraduate degree in creative illustration from EINA University School of Design and Art in Barcelona in 2022. Currently, he is a Cultural Manager at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. In his art creations, compositions with expressiveness and reality interact between the rational and the intuitive. Through mural painting, these points of view are materially combined with tattoo techniques and intervening graffiti. The artist's proposals are founded on the fundamental concepts of interaction and links.
