Look at that man.
Immersed in his discouragement he looks at himself.
There is a vibrant silence.
It’s the clown before the show. He knows that in a few moments the lights will come on and he must laugh.

Crime buried in this nothingness, where fatigue reigns over a thousand lost hours.

The result is the personal search that permanently surrounds the work of García-Alix, a reflection on life, experiences, fears and yearnings, a subsequent personal analysis turned into his own confession.
