Will Work For Fast Food, 2015, bronze and oil paint
Known for his controversial works, Eugenio Merino works across different media. Drawings, videos, objects and sculptures in bronze, resin or silicone are all part of his oeuvre. Each idea requires a specific material or language. Merino deal with different topics such as politics, religion and society with the purpose of making us doubt all supposed truths. For this, he makes use of irony, humor, metaphors or oxymorons. Anything useful to make art a space for critical reflections about the times we live in.
