De Las Sectas is a serie of 31 engravings, which represents a satire of today's society, with the decline of religions, politicians, economies, art and interpersonal relationships themselves; new technologies align us even more even though we no longer trust anything because we still need to believe in something… Etching technique, burnished aquatint, roulette, dry point and photopolymers.
Hardcover edition for original engravings, 23x23cms
Do not expect from me more answers than the clues left on these flattened sheets that I have been illustrating over the time. I am only the chronicler of this story and, to be honest, I will tell you that it is nothing more than a fictional adaptation of a terrible translation of the arabesque or a worse interpretation due to the little knowledge I have of this language, of some worn out and hard ilegible manuscripts that caught my attention in a hidden library on the Madrid flea market, which spoke of the magical powers achieved by some Persian necromancers in this unique and extravagant object. Manuscripts signed, it seems, by an arab historian, the forgotten Cede Jamete Berenguel.
