Guayaquil de mis horrores [Guayaquil of my horrors]
2019
Acrylic marker on canvas (300cm x 50cm)
Picturing Guayaquil as the container of hell, purgatory, and heaven, came as the result of exploring the idiosyncratic content of my city. Through visual references that range from medieval religious tapestries to renaissance corporeity, I sought to contrast the sense of glorification with the grotesque and chaotic scenes of this tryptic.
