art as no idea

This art piece contains 19 digital photographs plus 19 paintings. Each of these 38 elements belongs to a logical family.

It is the nature of this artwork that its site specific paintings, that will be in place for less than one month, as if they were white flowers, are for sale as well as the photographs that belong to cyberspace in the first place. What would an art lover, a collector, a museum have in return for those ephemeral paintings? Nothing. Nothing that could replace those nineteen paintings once they disappear. As a compensation for this loss I would write an essay for the art lover only, where I will say things about these paintings and the room where they were born and died.
