Quique

“Wretched Wars”

2017

C/Previsión

A graffiti vast length with a leaden grey background that depicts on baroque fonts and red tears of blood from a deadpan eye, the devastating effects of war. Quique pays his particular homage to Miguel Hernández with this painting on the 75^th anniversary of his death, integrating into the composition the poem Wretched Wars, from Songbook and Ballads of Absences.

Wretched wars
when love is not our aim.

Wretched, wretched.

Wretched weapons
those that are not words.

Wretched, wretched.

Wretched men
that die not out of love.

Wretched, wretched.
