what exactly is his work about?
is his work meant for everyone to view?
where is his stuff meant to be displayed?
morales's pieces are like hoaunted houses. they usually evoke some kind of fear or distress but still people come to see it. they want to experience it because they are curious and if they didnt want to experience it it will "experience them". i really love this people because its truly meant to be viewed by everyone because everyone has fear and no matter if you want to participate in it or not, when you come close enough it comes for you. its crazy how people are attracted to fear like this. most people go see scary movies or haunted houses because maybe they re curious. morales wants you to be subjected to this to learn how people react, to get them interacting with his work, and to get them to communicate with others. his thought is that if you experience violence, you can learn from it and make strides to lessen it.
would his stuff have more meaning if it were placed in violent areas?
would violence be reduced because of it?
would that work for positive aspects of life? will it keep positive things positive or turn them negative?
