"I continue capturing on my canvases the passion and respect I have for this city… without politics and with more culture. I hope one day to be able to do it on its walls, in public light. In a futuristic way.
Because the future of evolution arrives through new and creative ideas. We would never fully understand it if we remain divided, imposing our ideologies and political thoughts with anger… cutting the wings of artistic creation… and without realizing it, we lose the essence of what we truly carry inside.
The brewer and the captain are just as much from Quilmes as the indigenous people who carried the first stones over the mud of this place… The English brought football, but here the ball is felt and moves differently.
Tonight the brewer plays, and the captain knows it… he’s already ready from the stars.
Let’s go, Cervecero."
