About the artist
The pictorial series by the Durangueño author poses a tie on the scoreboard between humans, horses and plants. Memories, wishes, memories, encounters, family, desires: Bache shares his current vision with us through his plastic work. It disrupts the notion of "size matters" to establish that what really matters are the approaches, resolutions and questions.
