Le Cuilleur de Pluie, n.1 (2025)Acrylic painting by Kiro

This is a work that captures the essence of absurdity and joy. The human figure, depicted while collecting raindrops with pieces of cardboard, seems engaged in an impossible task, yet the atmosphere is anything but melancholic. The vivid and vibrant colors convey a sense of wonder and abandon, as if the figure were dancing with the rain rather than trying to catch it. It's an act of joy, a celebration of the fleeting beauty of life, where the attempt to hold onto what's destined to vanish becomes an expression of hope and optimism. The figure isn't frustrated by the impossibility of the task, but is carried away by the magic of the moment, reminding us that sometimes it's precisely the futility of the action that makes it so precious.
