The works presented to Drap-Art relate craftsmanship and digital techniques, representing popular video game culture, but with an ancient craft technique. The glass is recycled as well as the bones, recovered from the rubbish with the intention of creating visual narratives that integrate the current symbolism of our digital culture, but with that religious aura that has the magnetism of the light of the old church windows, now replaced by LED screens or mobile devices that illuminate our eyes.
