Dario Escobar is a conceptual artist who transforms everyday sports equipment into highly decorated luxury goods. He has altered skateboards, table tennis paddles, and, as seen here, surfboards using a metalworking technique more than 400 years old. The surfboard may be a modern everyday object, but the artist has made it into a precious item that would seem at home in a royal palace or church from a past era. Escobar’s silver-embossed object slips between categories of high art and kitsch, mass production and the handmade. Escobar also connects the work to the history of his native Guatemala by using a metalworking technique developed there in the 1600s, a time when the country was under colonial rule. The artist reclaims that history to comment on contemporary society, consumer culture and colonialism.
