AMBER

"AMBER" is a scene that plays with the aesthetics of an idealized world—almost like a dollhouse—while subtly introducing an underlying tension beneath its apparent perfection. The woman, with a sweet and innocent appearance, enjoys breakfast in her neatly arranged kitchen, surrounded by pastel colors and details reminiscent of a traditionally idyllic lifestyle.

However, upon closer inspection, warning signs begin to emerge: a "Wanted" poster featuring a criminal’s composite sketch, a milk carton displaying a missing girl’s photograph, and, through the window, an unsettling scene of a man—matching the suspect’s description—talking to a young girl in a seemingly peaceful American neighborhood.

Meanwhile, the woman reads a magazine titled Gossip, with the tagline "The Magazine for Good Girls," reinforcing the traditional ideal of female submission. One of the headlines promises tips on how to make a husband happy, reflecting the type of narrative that has shaped generations of women under the illusion of a perfect and secure life.

Despite the carefully curated, seemingly harmless environment, her expression suggests that something off-camera has caught her attention. The danger is not immediate, but it lingers—hidden within the details of an image that, like many constructed realities, is not what it seems.

To ensure the longevity and optimal preservation of your artwork, please follow these detailed care instructions:

1. Handling

Use Gloves: Always handle the photograph with clean, dry hands or preferably with cotton gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints or smudges on the acrylic surface.

Avoid Scratching: Be careful not to scratch the acrylic surface. Avoid placing sharp objects near the artwork.

2. Cleaning

Dusting: Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a microfiber cloth to gently dust the surface. Avoid using paper towels or rough cloths that could scratch the acrylic.

Cleaning Solutions: For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution with water. Apply the solution to the cloth, not directly to the acrylic, and gently wipe the surface. Avoid using ammonia-based or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the acrylic.

3. Display

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Do not expose the artwork to direct sunlight to prevent fading and potential damage to both the acrylic and the photographic print.

Temperature and Humidity: Display the artwork in a stable environment with a temperature between 10ºC and 30ºC and a relative humidity between 40% and 60%. Avoid placing it in areas with extreme temperature changes or high humidity, such as bathrooms or kitchens.

4. Mounting

Secure Mounting: Ensure the artwork is securely mounted using appropriate hardware. If you are unsure, consider professional installation to avoid damage.

Wall Protection: Use wall anchors or studs to support the weight of the acrylic and aluminum piece, ensuring it is securely and safely displayed.

5. Storage

Flat Storage: If you need to store the artwork, lay it flat in a cool, dry place. Avoid stacking other items on top of it to prevent scratches or pressure marks.

Protective Covering: Cover the surface with a soft cloth or a protective film to prevent dust accumulation and scratches.

6. Transportation

Protective Packaging: When transporting the artwork, use protective materials such as bubble wrap and sturdy, padded packaging to prevent damage. Ensure that the acrylic surface is protected from scratches and impacts.

Avoid Extreme Conditions: Do not expose the artwork to extreme temperatures or humidity during transportation. Handle it with care to avoid bending or dropping.
