Dust to dust

Sailing between humor, irony, and the creases of tributes, Alejandro García seems to be part of this idol worship generation of North American culture and the incoherences of our times.

Passionate believer of decaying, depressive icons: rockstars, all those that plunged into drugs and killed themselves over love or something that looked very much like it, science fiction characters, who hid humansides full of mystery, porn stars, that if they used to be perceived like mere sexual objects, now get to become beings of cult and admiration…

We create terrifying, extreme icons, trying to arouse in all of us a feeling of being alive. We are faithful followers of every being of darkness, because they help us, through their own forms of expression, to say to the world how our generation feels…

Alejandro manages to get us disconcerted, he makes us question ourselves if his work is a constant criticism, or a show of respect, At the same time, he makes us see how everything is the same thing, how we all are equal, how death promises much more than life…

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
