¨Reciprocity¨(Reciprocidad) Madrid, Spain 2015 for Madrid Street Art Project- Urban art and gender equality project.

Posted on Ene 7, 2016

¨This wall speaks about gender equality, considering the concept of gender from a wider and more plural place. It downplays the biological condition of the individual, respecting the choice that each person makes about their condition as man, woman or a non-binary gender. It speaks of subverting the manichean logic that always favors one part over the other one, trying to speak from inside and outside the system and not only investing the traditional asymmetry to continue speaking from the same system that is criticized.¨

Many special thanks to Diana Prieto and Guillermo de la Madrid for all the love and care, to George Zolschoe for his help and company and extra thanks to adorable Matteo.

Fortaleza, Brasil 2015- Concreto Festival.

Posted on Dic 2, 2015

¨Cinco países en el mundo prohiben completamente el aborto, cuatro de ellos están en Latinoamerica. En Brasil el aborto esta penalizado, es un tema del que no se suele hablar, sin embargo es la cuarta causa de muerte de la mujer. Se estima que una mujer Brasileña muere cada dos días víctima del aborto ilegal. Anualmente se realizan alrededor de un millón de abortos. Según establece el Codigo Penal Brasileño vigente desde 1940, el aborto es ilegal en Brasil salvo en dos supuestos: Si el embarazo pone en riesgo serio la vida de la mujer o si el embarazo es resultado de una violación. Actualmente este último se enfrenta a resistencias por parte de la comunidad evangélica, que lo consideran como una vía de alegación de la interrupción del embarazo. Este muro quiere cuestionar el uso del cuerpo de la mujer como territorio usurpado por la interferencia del Estado y sus leyes sobre un asunto privado que debería ser aceptado como tal y no penalizado, convirtiéndolo en un objeto de debate político en el cual la mujer pierde todo derecho y voto sobre su propio cuerpo. Habla sobre la falta de respeto hacia las mujeres a las cuales se las considera irresponsables e incapaces de tomar desiciones basadas en sus propios valores morales de acuerdo a sus circunstancias concretas.¨

¨Público/ Privada¨Fortaleza, Brasil 2015- Concreto Festival

Posted on Dic 2, 2015

¨Público/ Privada¨- Fortaleza, Brasil 2015- Universidad Federal do Ceara- Centro de Humanidades- Festival Concreto.

Abortion is completely forbiden in five countries in the world, four of them are in Latin America. Abortion is illegal in Brazil, it is a topic that is not usually spoken, yet it is the fourth cause of death for women. It is estimated that a Brazilian woman dies every two days victim of illegal abortion. One million abortions are performed annually. Since 1940 the Penal Brazilian Code established that abortions are illegal in Brazil except in two cases: If the pregnancy seriously endangers woman’s life or if is a rape’s consequence. Currently this last one is facing resistance from the evangelical community, as they consider it as a way to claim abortion. This wall questions the use of female body as an usurped territory by the state and its laws interference on a private matter that should be accepted as such and not penalized, turning it in a political debate subject in which women lose all rights and vote on their own body. It talks about the lack of respect for women who are considered irresponsible and incapable of making decisions based on their own moral values according to their specific circumstances.

Many special thanks to Narcelio Grud for the care and  company, thanks to the people from the University for their hospitality and to all the artists for the time shared…all my love to Fortaleza.

25 November ¨International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women¨
Ravenna, Italy 2015 for Subsidence Festival.

This wall is located in the ¨Giardino Sorelle Mirabal¨, named this way in honor to the Mirabal Sisters, four Dominican sisters who opposed the dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo and were involved in clandestine activities against his regime. They use to called themselves ¨The Butterflies¨.
Three of the sisters were assassinated on 25 November 1960. The Mirabal´s death was a catalyst for change, and was the first event in a long sequence of events that led to freedom and democracy in the Dominican Republic.
In 1999 the 25 November was designated as the ¨International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women¨ in their honor.

Many special thanks to Antonella Midka Perazza and Mirko Dadich for the love, care and nice company, thanks to Chiara and Marco and to all the women from ¨Casa della donne¨ for the love.

Niort, France 2015.

¨Il est interdit d´interdire¨ ( Prohibido prohibir) Niort, France 2015- for Le 4eme Mur Festival.

This wall doesn’t speak solely through context, but it does speak about our time. It tells of human beings, immigrants or refugees alike, any person who for any number of reasons feels the need to move somewhere else. It speaks of our innate indifference to distance and our lack of interest for nameless and faceless people. It speaks to the internal contradiction between principles, rights, and our own self interests.

Special thanks to Eric Surmont for inviting me to take part of this project and to all the people from Niort for their frienship.
