[Estátu-kuó]

     Influenced by the imagery of the technical-market of countries such as Mexico, India, Pilipinas, USA and Spain, I create this series of posters, which are the result of a work marked by years of travel, cultural appropriations, graphic recycling and manipulation digital.

     Through this commercial signage, intended to be palatable, I explore our current status quo, on topics ranging from gender, economy, ecology, politics, war conflicts, or illegal human trafficking. From them arises and combines a market discourse that proposes a desirable and at the same time controversial image, resulting in an aesthetic parody of itself.     

The series mixes collage with drawing and painting, and is covered with a layer of varnish that aims to offer an old, modernist look; in a frank tribute to artists such as Alphonse Muscha, Guadalupe Posada, and Toulouse-Lautrec, who in their time also used art as a social tool to promote reflection through aesthetic experience.
