Joshua Vides, a renowned name in the street and graffiti art scene, has taken a divergent turn in his creative journey with the unveiling of his latest series titled "Shattered Dreams." This exhibition, which took place in Los Angeles, California, from August 18 to 25, 2023, marked Vides' inaugural venture into an exclusively ceramic-centric realm. A significant piece from this collection, the "Cup & Brushes," serves as a testament to the artist's boundless versatility and keen eye for merging contemporary concepts with traditional mediums. At first glance, the "Cup & Brushes" sculpture is more than a mere ceramic creation; it's a tangible narrative of the artist's transformative journey. Hand-molded and meticulously painted by Vides in his studio, this particular sculpture captivates viewers with its emblematic portrayal of the BMW car logo on a statuesque, slim cup. Nestled within the cup are paintbrushes, each vividly stained with remnants of colorful paint, illustrating the fusion of utility and artistry. The juxtaposition of the revered automotive emblem with the rudimentary tools of a painter not only reiterates the theme of shattered expectations but also challenges the conventions of pop art. Vides' dedication to handcrafting each piece in the "Shattered Dreams" series accentuates the personal touch and authenticity infused in every artwork. This transition from his graffiti roots to ceramics, while retaining the essence of street art, showcases the evolution of an artist who isn’t afraid to shatter boundaries while dreaming big.
