Descrizione Opera / Biografia


With its winter reflections on the hood of a Dodge Challenger, « O i soldi o la vita » is quite special among Gaumé’s Automorphoses. As it shows an expensive sportscar’s hood sticker graphics blending into lines of leafless tree trunks and limbs, it illustrates the dilemma of today’s automobile addicts: if they keep guzzling gas and aggravating climate change, their cars like the Challenger are seen reflecting seemingly dead trees. If they want to choose life — la vita—, they should give up on their obsession for environment-unfriendly status symbols like cars and money — i soldi. This is exactly what I did when reselling my car in December 2019. Until today in April 2021, I completely shifted towards car-sharing, walking, and picturing life outdoors as often as I can.
