“Dissolving Europe" is the new public art work that stormed Europe this
year from Vermibus. Using a dubious inter-rail ticket, Vermibus set out
with a set of 90 keys and his pallet of solvents to physically and
temporally highjack the western world of advertisements in the name of
fine art.
Each site is carefully deliberated with its environment, from Rolex
boutiques, to archaic museums. The system looks simple in movement:
unlock and roll the advertising poster to create a huge blank gleaming
white breath of fresh air in the urban environment. The advert then
undertakes the process of counter action painting using a series of
solvents and brushes, it is then replaced in another site, another city,
another country.
