Art with explosive consequences

Check out the amazing work of Spanish artist Alicia Martin and New Yorker Rosemarie Fiore.

Alicia uses old books to create stunning installations reminiscent of waterfalls and landslides. We love the metaphor of words tumbling over themselves.

And Rosemarie, who uses live fireworks to generate little explosions of extraordinary colour, creates collages at once carefully composed and dictated by chance. Like life, really.
