The proposal, selected for the 2025 edition of ArtBaniana Residency, consists of Corten steel silhouettes anchored to façades, roofs around the old city center. The figures represent the local artist Paco Ariza at different stages of his life (childhood, adolescence and adulthood) and are located near his home-studio, seeking to surprise passers-by walking through the city's narrow streets. The locations for the intervention were selected in collaboration with the festival organisers and Paco Jr, son of the deceased artist, during the  first days of the residency. 

Based on documentation of the work of the artist, we imagined a young Paco Ariza discovering his love of flight (which later translates into his aerial views of the Andalusian landscape) through a series of encounters with birds and other small flying creatures (such as dragonflies, interpreted by Ariza in his sculptural phase).

A special thanks goes to Paco Jr, who opened us his atelier, let us work there and helped in the different phases of the process.
