El artículo 56.3 de la Constitución española dicta que “La persona del Rey es inviolable y no está sujeta a responsabilidad”. Este hecho hace que el principio básico de igualdad de toda democracia se vaya al traste.

Parece no tener sentido que en un estado aconfesional sus ciudadanos tengan que verse enjuiciados por ofensas a los sentimientos religiosos. Esto pasa en la España europea y es la hostia.

Can you imagine that democracy only consisted in depositing a piece of paper in an urn every four years and then remaining on the sidelines of political life? And if democracy were only a scam? Can you imagine?

“Return to Multiverso” se trata de una nueva versión de “Multiverso”, una acción anterior de la artista Marta Pinilla. En “Multiverso”, los performers acababan de atravesar un agujero negro y se encontraban en una universo paralelo. En este universo, habían perdido parte de su humanidad, en el sentido que habían perdido parte de lo que nos hace humanos y poseían esa característica propia de lo siniestro, que provoca atracción y rechazo al mismo tiempo. Los nuevos seres (o “bichos”), se transformaban en observadores de la realidad, a la vez que ellos eran el objeto de investigación.

Intentaban comunicarse, relacionarse con los humanos que encontraban en el camino y poseían un lenguaje propio basado en el propio sonido que producen los trajes. En posteriores acciones de la artista esta idea original se ha ido diluyendo a media que los bichos se han ido haciendo más humanos. Ahora es fácil verlos escribir a máquina, conectándose a la web o montando en bicicleta.

Islamophobia is one of the main drivers of radicalisation in young Westerners of Muslim origin. The exclusion and stigmatization of this group in Western countries generates individuals vulnerable to the promises of an Islamic caliphate. This leads some to fight the holy war, becoming jihadists who will massacre, for the most part, other Muslims. Many of these young people go straight to their deaths in the line of duty.

Art brings great value to society, from beauty to ideas and discourses that are not dealt with in other areas. Nevertheless, the promotion of the arts is still in crisis and institutions are washing their hands of it. Art seems to be superfluous in this society just when we need it most.

Thus, artists are forced into double precariousness. The labour market in which they are forced to participate in order to survive and the art “market” itself, which mistreats them and uses them as ephemeral products.

Performative action against HIV stigma.

HIV is a chronic disease that is not more serious under appropriate supervision and treatment. HIV-positive people on undetectable viral load do not transmit the virus.
Yet our society continues to make HIV-positive people invisible under stigma and taboo. Thus they become undetectable bodies.

Since its start in March 2011, the war in Syria has killed 400,000 people and displaced more than 11 million from their homes. According to figures from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the war has caused more than 5 million people to migrate, one of the largest exoduses in recent history.

Meanwhile, the developed countries, led by the European Union, far from finding a solution to the conflict, are investing millions of euros in preventing the displaced from crossing their borders.

Every boat that comes ashore off the European coast, every group of displaced people looking for a safe place to live is an echo of a conflict that is still raging and in which all international laws on political asylum are being violated. The echoes from Syria.

Honestly, I was looking for a piece that didn’t need explanation or synopsis. A personal piece. Only because I want to, because I can.

Something to express myself without words. To explore my emotions, my love and my hate; the deepest parts of me.

A living piece with which to find new things in each exhibition. To explore, to dream. It’s just something personal.

There are places where you have lived many thing and when you leave them a part of you stays there.

Every experience leaves a mark on the memory. The past is anchored in the mind and comes back at times. Abandoned spaces also have their memory, all the stories that have lived in them. A ghost that keeps remembering everything lived.

HIV has evolved from a deadly disease to a manageable disease with a good quality of life and favorable prognosis. Yes, in rich countries, because in poor countries people continue to die of AIDS. Let’s make a toast to those dead that Big Pharma leaves behind with the blocking of drugs through the patent system. Let us also drink to its great benefits and then put on a red ribbon.

(The objectification of the bodies) Sexual objectification takes place when the person is attributed to the condition of sexual object. Dissociating the sexual sexes and the physical beauty of the rest of the personality and existence as an individual. This phenomenon is transferred to all areas of a society addicted to consumption, new, using and throwing. Making human relationships a mere transaction.

Five hundred years before Christ was built the Via Salaria, a causeway that ran from the salt flats of the city of Ostia to Castrum Truentinum. Soldiers who took care of the road received part of the salary. This one was called Salarium Argentum, that is, salt money. In Greece, the exchange of salt for slaves, gave rise to the expression “not worth its salt”.

From the least to the most exorbitant of wages all have something to sell. It can be work, time, life or even soul. And all for a handful of salt.

A cosmic Nebula seems like a star. It gives birth to new elements which in turn will give way to life. All this life that existed, exists and will exist is made up of the same stardust that arose eons ago.

As said with great eloquence by Carl Sagan: ‘we are stardust’.

Do the work no longer necessary since Duchamp proposed his first ready-mades. Any object out of context could become art. Everyday ordinary objects rise to special status when are used in an artistic manifestation. But this art requires an infrastructure to exist.

Art has become into a luxury that feeds a voracious market hungry for news, and that gives value to the objects by rhetoric. Money is the true philosophy of so-called contemporary art.

Fortunately art has not died. The production is massive and obsolescence of the works overwhelms. At this point is inevitable to ask the same question that Duchamp a century ago when he presented his emblematic work: What we consider art?

The mystical powers of Priapus, God of fertility in ancient Greece, have been overwhelmed. As an ancient ceremony, the fertility that emanates from his entrails elevated the level of world population to an extreme not yet seen until this moment.

The exponential growth of the human population can only be understood thanks to the intensive farming that has been developing since the last century. But with more than 7,000 million inhabitants, our planet seems to suffer the effects of uncontrolled plague.

I would like to talk about desire, the sensation that makes one feel incomplete without knowing why. It is as if the happiness puzzle is missing a piece.

Desire drives us to look for and try to achieve our objectives but at the same time, can lead to a state of melancholy and anxiety for fear of not being able to enjoy what we aspire to.

Incomplete is a small essay on this feeling, the thirst of feeling incomplete, the amputation of the soul.

Dialogue about egocentrism of artists

We all have opinions on everything. Each have their own speeches, some more correct than others. So each to their own mental jerk offs.

Fuckin’ Discourse is a pornographic satire that parodies the empty speeches which we commonly call talk for talks sake.
