Africa

His current project, Africa, which is still in progress, is the acknowledgement of the land where he lives, from a symbolic and poetic point of view. It is the acceptance of this continent as a vital space, of its light and shadows, of its culture and its identity signs. But it is also a social and political criticism aimed at defending a territory which has always been cast aside, in a world in which all compasses point north and turn their backs on the south, and where the only option left for its inhabitants is to cross the sea. Africa is a visual poem, a tribute to the young Sudanese poet Abdel Wahab Yousif, also known as Latinos, famous within his generation, and who perished in August 2020 when the rubber boat in which he was travelling in the hope of reaching European coasts, sank.
