The Truth About the Truth Vol. II

The Truth About the Truth Vol. II is part of an ongoing investigation in which I explore how painting can expand into three-dimensional space without fully becoming sculpture. In this piece, I present a fake book: a pictorial object that cannot be opened or read, whose only information is a cover that ironically promises to reveal “the truth about the truth” in a nonexistent second volume.
My intention was to create a work that highlights the fragility of certainty, which is why I chose to construct a fake book. Each medium—whether painting or photography—carries a set of characteristics and symbolic associations within our culture. For instance, we tend to accept photography as a document of reality. This perception is precisely what artists like Joan Fontcuberta challenge in works such as Fauna Secreta, where he uses a supposedly truthful medium to present invented species, thereby setting a trap for our visual credulity.
In the same way that photography is commonly associated with visual truth, books are deeply linked to knowledge, science, academia, and authority. There is a part of us that tends to believe that if something is printed in a book, it must be true. This work plays directly with that trust: it presents itself as a book that promises a definitive truth, but in reality, contains nothing. There is no text, no pages, no substance—only a carefully crafted cover that simulates depth.
The Truth About the Truth Vol. 2 is, in this sense, a meta-object: a painting disguised as a book, created to speak about the book as a symbol, about painting as simulacrum, and about truth as a cultural construction rather than a certainty.
