GHETTOBLASTER

“GHETTOBLASTER” With bold blue tones and clean lines, this work cap­tures the iconic ghet­to­blaster of the early 1980s, a symbol of urban youth cul­ture. The portable sound system was more than just tech­nol­o­gy: it stood for self-expres­sion, com­mu­ni­ty, and the pul­sat­ing sound of emerg­ing rap music. Close­ly tied to break­danc­ing, street life, and a way of living that made music vis­i­ble, this piece pre­serves a frag­ment of pop cul­ture in a time­less, min­i­mal­ist aes­thet­ic. “GHETTOBLASTER” is part of the art series “Blue in a Square”, which includes 300+ artworks.
