Through a triple projection and a set of textile pieces he calls ‘flags,’ the artist fuses the real with the surreal.</p><p>In this videoinstallation, the artist explores distinct visualities marked by vibrant colours and deep symbolism, reflecting the cultural richness of the city in constant movement.</p><p><br></p>" itemprop="description" />
