Work of art, 2016, made with spray paint, enamel and acrylic on canvas. Total dimensions are 100x150 cm.

Depicted here is the mythical biblical creation of the Tower of Babel, the destruction of which by God created the various world languages and national boundaries—and with these, the development of new graphemes. Red is the battle and sacrifice, rendered in the pictorial gesture of dripping; black acts as a frame for this ascent made up of right angles, tangents and secants for a code in pieces in order to maintain its spiritual value.

Flycat, the pseudonym of Luca Massironi, is one of the main representatives of the first generation of street artists and writers in Europe. His numerous trips to East Los Angeles, his ties to the greatest masters worldwide, and his deep passion for graffiti led him to write his "Manifesto del Futurismo Celeste" with the objective of giving back to each individual letter its own expressive autonomy.

He has been the focus of numerous art shows both in Italy and abroad, giving great attention to the social-cultural side of his art: in 1998 he held the first Spray Art course at the C. Beccaria Juvenile Penal Institution in Milan; in 2006 he was the artistic director of the show “Dal Muro alla Tela” put on by the FAI (Italian Cultural and Environmental Foundation); and in 2008 he collaborated with the Youth Ministry to create a discussion table about urban art. Additionally, in 2016 he was the first European artist invited by the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to hold a workshop during the eighth edition of the FADJR.
