Precipitados is a series of "theatrical clashes between culture and nature" done by Pablo Genoves. The artwork done on these is exceptional but the creativity and originality is even better. All of the pictures in his series are of buildings being overwhelmed by great floods.
First of all the artwork done by Genoves in his collection is done exceptionally well. The small details in the water and the setting add to the amazing quality of these pieces. The buildings appear to be abandoned but fancy, as if some wealthy man left and forgot about the house and mother nature unleashed a great torrent of water to collect it.
The waves are very intense and furiously flowing around the room, overpowering everything thing in its way. The waves appear to be violent yet they are not destructive or devastating to the objects in the room. The gate and the statues stand their ground while the water aggressively crashes into and flows around them. The artist's use of shadows give the waves flow and make the water look 3D. The black and white pictures and the light coming in through the windows give the art an epic event feel.
Throughout the series of artwork, which include around ten different works, there are similarities and recurring themes the author keeps bringing back. Each of the rooms are very fancy and the elegant chandeliers and the intricate ceiling designs adds to the beauty of the setting. The artist made the rooms sophisticated to reinforce the idea that these floods are truly devastating. The use of lighting and the detail used in the waves give his art an apocalyptic feel.
