Guerra de la Paz

Guerra de la Paz isn’t a single person. Rather, it’s nom de guerre of two Cuban-born, Miami-based artists—Alain Guerra and Neraldo de la Paz—who recover landfill-bound clothing and render them into subversive art installations. For Guerra and de la Paz, the reclaimed garments are akin to relics that once defined an individual’s personality. Arranged together en masse, however, they become part of a larger message, raising their voices in unison regarding issues of mass consumption, international conflict, and environmental degradation.
