A Door Without a Lock, 2023
Since his arrival in Mexico and with the support of Casa Frida, along with various organizations, he has been able to rebuild his life and start laying the foundations for a future he hopes to share with his family. Ángel is happy and proud of himself, as he has gradually stabilized parts of his life. He has regulated his immigration status and been recognized as a refugee, found a job where he can work in a field he loves (caring for the health of people in his community), and secured a dignified place to live.
The dream he longs for the most, and which he gets closer to every day, is to reunite with his family, sharing and living together in a new home.
The artist embraces the concept of technoanimism, which recognizes spirit in humans, animals, nature, and artificial beings, and in his work, he explores the polymorphic potential that ignores boundaries between all entities. Yupica and his team constantly research, experiment, and develop new forms of expression, such as “ricegraphy,” “sculptural body with animation,” and “multidimensional projection.
