Boa Mistura: Hogar Dulce Calle (Update)

A dying bedside table
In y asking for help
From a pile of rubble

A mute Ghetto Blaster
That shouts without speakers

A broken TV
A bureau no one uses
A skateboard smashed by thousands of tricks

We picked up
The wardrobe you threw away
We’ve treated it with affection,
We gave it’s dignity back

Now your neighbour might buy this piece
And put it against the wall
Where once was new, but now is changed.

We,ve painted on these objects
Because they mantain a connection with the street,
This is where graffiti comes from,
Where we come from

An object is not the same as it’s tag says
Concepts have unclear limits
There will neber be graffiti inside a gallery
Because when you cross the door it’ll cease to be.

But we dont care about borders
Because we don’t believe in them



HOGAR DULCE CALLE (Home Sweet Street) is an exhibition where customized furniture, painted doors, cabinet drawers turnet into canvases and skateboards are raised to the category of pieces of art. All of these things configure a non-convencional universe.

These things were found on the street, and boaMistura has given them the affection and theis dignity back. Pieces that are replicated on the walls of the gallery, or the streets of the city create confusion in the audience and make them think about the limits of the art.
BoaMistura blusrs and crosses these limits of art in order to go where no one has gone before.

“Transgress borders, break down prejudices, because what is on the other side can be as good as what is on this one”

The work of BoaMistura is all about love of graffiti, color and life. This group of 5 Spanish artists is, as the name says in portuguese, a good misture. Arkoh, Derko, Pahg, Purone & Rdick have developed their work in different fields, applying both a diversity of styles and the different views of each member. BoaMistura represents a mixture of perspectives which complement, influence and mix their personal style together in order to create something better. From graffiti and mural painting, to graphic design and illustration. BoaMistura want to give the world its color back.

“5 heads, 10 hands, just one heart”
