Vete unos siglos atrás. Imagínate un monasterio. Cuatro paredes, un techo y monjes rezando todo el día. Te levantas, rezas y te acuestas, así, en un bucle infinito. Con ese panorama unos monjes, que en realidad eran unos hippies aunque no lo supieran, decidieron que podían hacer algo más. Empezaron a usar las manos y cultivaron su propia comida, levantaron las paredes de sus edificios… Al Ora le añadieron el Labora.
Aquí cambiamos crucifijos por pantallas de serigrafía y biblias por emulsión. Si rezamos a alguien es al Photoshop, aunque intentamos hacerlo lo menos posible. Cada uno con lo suyo, pero en el fondo nos parecemos bastante. Ambos dedicamos nuestro tiempo a aquello en lo que creemos.
Go back in time a few centuries ago. Imagine a monastery full of monks praying the whole day. They just wake up early in the morning, spend their time praying and reciting, and finally, when night falls, they go to bed. Everyday is exactly the same. Facing that situation, a group of monks, who were actually hippies but they did not know, decided to be something else. So they started working with his hands, growing their own food and building their abbeys brick by brick. They combined contemplation with action: Pray and Work.
Here, at our studio, we change crucifixes for silkscreens and bibles for emulsion. If we pray to someone that is Photoshop, although we try to use it as less as possible. You may think those monks from the middle ages have nothing to do with us but, deep down, we are the same thing. We have also decided to dedicate our life to doing what we believe in.
