The phrase « LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL » appears like a large luminous graffiti set against a deep blue sky. John Beckley constructs it in broad gradient letters, from pink to green through yellow and turquoise, whose irregular outlines let drips run downward. Around the text, splashes of paint and motifs of small circles and grids recall the energy of urban aesthetics. The background, worked in shades of blue and diagonal strokes, gives an impression of depth crossed by colored bursts. The whole vibrates between lightness and intensity, the phrase remaining suspended in the air.
