MIAMI BEACH, FL, UNITED STATES, November 4, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Artist Facundo Yebne, known as FLY, celebrates a landmark year marked by international recognition and an expanded presence during Miami Art Week. After receiving the Installation Art Fourth Prize at the Florence Biennale, FLY now prepares to share his uplifting message of Peace, Love, and Joy through multiple exhibitions across Miami.

At the Florence Biennale, FLY was recognized for his monumental installation UnityBeak: Hope and Resilience, a pair of sculptural ducks created from more than 14,000 miniature rubber ducks. The work transforms a playful object into a symbol of collective strength and shared humanity. Viewers in Florence were moved by the installation’s emotional depth and its message of optimism through unity.

Continuing this vision, FLY presents his solo exhibition “Peace, Love, and Joy, We All Need Some” at Aqua Art Miami. The show invites visitors to reconnect with positivity, compassion, and community through sculpture, light, and color. Each work reflects FLY’s belief that art can serve as both a mirror and a bridge, reminding people of what connects them beyond division.

FLY’s presence extends further across Miami Art Week with two gallery collaborations. At Context Art Miami, he joins Makowski Gallery, presenting works that highlight transformation and resilience through material and form. At Spectrum Miami, his collaboration with Casa Poidomani emphasizes art’s power to heal and inspire collective joy.

“Art is a bridge. Peace, love, and joy are the steps,” said FLY.

With his distinctive approach that combines large-scale installations and participatory concepts, FLY continues to establish himself as one of Miami’s most dynamic emerging voices. His art celebrates emotion, inclusion, and the strength of the human spirit, bridging audiences from public spaces to international art fairs.
