// Fósforo by Jorge Macchi is a limited edition lithograph from 2010, created in an edition of 50 plus artist’s proofs (BAT). The artwork features a single, oversized matchstick with a slightly burned tip, rendered in a minimalist, realistic style against a plain white background. The match is adorned with a small green label at its midpoint, adding a touch of color to the otherwise subdued palette. This simple yet evocative image draws attention to the delicate balance between potential and action, as the match appears both unused and on the verge of ignition. Macchi’s focus on everyday objects imbues them with a sense of contemplation, inviting viewers to consider themes of fragility, impermanence, and latent energy within mundane items.

What is Lettrism?
Lettrism is an art form that uses letters, words, and symbols to create artwork. The movement was established in Paris in the 1940s and later gained popularity in the 1950s in America. Lettrisme is the French spelling of the movement's name, derived from the French word for letter.
