We have always been fascinated by the genius of great artists: the elusive source of creativity that enables them to produce something transcendent. We would love to know what was going on inside the minds of Salvador Dalí, Frida Kahlo, or Andy Warhol. What would their thoughts look like, and how did they come up with ideas to develop into their unforgettable works? Celebrated artist Loui Jover visualizes this enamored speculation in the collages from his Deconstructed series. He cracks open the heads of Warhol, Kahlo, and Dalí to transform their creative impulses into thrilling shapes and figures.

Frida Kahlo and Andy Warhol are shown in black-and-white photographs augmented with surprisingly colorful elements. These piece instantly arouse our curiosity and demand closer inspection. Planets, butterflies, and all sorts of geometric shapes emerges from the famous figures’ compartmentalized heads. Trees grow skyward, intricate networks of thoughts that will soon bear creative fruit. A wave grows out of Salvador DalÍ’s head, and his left eye protrudes as though it wants to take the world under the microscope. His artistic curiosity is realized in the form of colorful diagrams emerging from his head. The combination of cut up photographs and painting sparks the viewer’s imagination. It is remarkable that, although the compositions seem so fragmented at first, the balance of color and textures results in a harmonic whole.
