Description of the art

At home I have a collection of auques, which I have always loved. The auca is also the earliest form of comics, and I wanted to mix this piece of popular culture and comics with an aesthetic closer to hermetic graffiti. In it I tell a short story in which the Besòs appears personified, from its source until it flows into the sea. The name auca comes from oca (goose), as in the game of the goose, and I also wanted to connect it with the joy of playing and painting.
