'árbol genealógico'

filip uses the human body as a means of artistic expression and exploration in ‘árbol genealógico'(2022). Belonging to the series ‘masas de cuerpo’, filip shows his interest in capturing ideas through the use of different figures, many of them relevant personalities in the Spanish art scene.

The architectural form of the tree traces a common germ. By bringing together bodies of various shapes and sizes, and regardless of racial, gender, age or physical differences, custic reinforces the idea of a common and universal origin rooted in the shared humanity of all individuals, thus inviting them to overcome rivalry and confrontation.
