Gio Montez replaces the idea of the finished artwork with a fluid action, creating a system of exchange, where form remains negotiable and value is determined in real time. The canvas becomes a mutable field, fragmented, pre-sold, and completed only through a pact between artist and collector. In this process, painting is no longer a static object but a liquid instrument—one that absorbs urgency, participation, and risk—transforming survival into method and transaction into gesture.
