Rationale

CITIZENS "Citizens", citizens, is the natural consequence of the series "Callejeando" that I have been working on for the last few years. It should be noted that each of them does not have a clear start and end date, as they coexist with each other, complement each other, and evolve together. If "Callejeando" is a look towards the outside, based on how everything around us influences us and conditions who we are (urban art, advertising, fashion, music, TV, etc.). The "Citizens" series is a look towards the inside, much more reflective and intimate about what happens around us. In these works, I introduce within these "citizens", all those experiences and impulses that place us before the loneliness of the individual, which I represent with the absence of color around the central character of each work. In these figures, we can see ourselves represented in our day to day, since each of these "citizens" moves between a duality of ideas and actions that lead them to consider whether to do what their ethics ask of them or to lean towards what society demands of them. Therefore, in these figures we can find details typical of what makes us human (T'estime, besa'm, amor, mare....), on the other hand, we can find other signs of what turns us into monsters and predators (money, $, €, disgust...) Thus, we are faced with an individual trapped in a society of unipensadores in which it is difficult to deviate from what is established and what society expects of him. These collections have been exhibited in Berlin, Brussels, Cairo, Madrid, Rome, New York, Basel, Paris, London, and Ningbo (China)
