TRANSGENIC JAWS

In the little photographics collages Transgenic jaws we find before a sample of pseudoscientific portraits, coming from a varied group of birds where their characteristic beaks have been amputated to, lately, be replaced by the jaws of different mammals through a collage work and reintegration into gouache. The result confirms a collection of visual errors, monstrous creatures that, surprisingly, are not so far removed from the “reality” in which we live.
