BACO / ART

INVISIBLE

The Art came first, shaping the visual content of what would become INVISIBLE. Then, quickly, it turned into a mean, channeling assets towards the production of the book. In that prospect, I needed to be self-sufficient, which translated into an original process, which in turn impacted the way the visuals would be displayed in the book. In the end, it vastly altered my practice as an artist.

Also, for the first time I took the pen to write... nothing long, vignettes, that would be paired with each portraits creating a repetitive dichotomy, a silent mantra.

Watch ¡NO PASARÁN!, the time-lapse video of the making of the portrait of Dolores ‘La Pasionaria’ Ibárruri (1895-1989).
