-The first solo exhibition of Suedo in Berlin. An exploration of his unique creatures and pictorial elements.
-Bestiario is inspired by current events, with the expansion of neoliberalism as an economic, social and political - system on a global scale.
-In Bestiario the different forms of life that were represented in Exogenesis (previous series) are represented, but - from an aggressive and sarcastic perspective. A crude approach both in the subject matter and in the aesthetic - treatment of the work, in which aerosol and oil are added as tools with a certain preponderance (giving a pop tinge) - as well as collage of paint with scraps of other paintings, in addition to the classic acrylics and markers used in - previous works.
-Here we can appreciate some of the characters, as demons, expressing their anger towards humanity, as if these - species were answering to the actions of society towards the planet Earth. Either through the exploitation of - natural resources, or in the representation of the social relations between people in a civilization totally - absorbed by consumption, greed vanity and the ode to money. In one way or another, these characters invite us to - reflect on where and how we stand before the world.
-Thus Bestiario carries itself the premise that we are the beasts that have come to devour everything, even
- ourselves
