Brazilian artist Romero Britto was trendy in the late 80’s but never quite went away, and now he’s unleashed yet more colorful sculpture on an unsuspecting Miami.

His latest sculptures were recently unveiled at Miami’s “Grapeland” water-park, which actually makes sense since the park is mostly frequented by kids. What boggles our mind is that Britto is also wildly popular among art collectors, some of the more famous being Eileen Guggenheim and Michael Jackson. Describing his art is sort of like trying to describe what a 5-year-old’s acid trip would look like, so we’ll just show you:

Britto says of his art:

“I don’t want to bring negativity to my work. I only want to show the positive side of life, beautiful colors and shapes that can bring happiness to the people.”

Just like Jacko brings happiness to the little boys! It all makes sense now.

Honestly, how can you take this man seriously?! He claims that;

“I make images to inspire people, not to make them depressed and scared.”

But this is what he proposed as a uniform for Miami International Airport employees:

We’re pretty sure that shirt is the eighth sign of the apocalypse, and anyone who says it doesn’t make them want to hide under the bed clutching a pillow is a damn liar. In Britto’s defense, he’s pals with “CSI’s” David Caruso and singer Gloria Estefan, and we can’t think of anything bad to say about that.
