I did this reductive print on a woodblock. I wanted to do sort of a propaganda poster, and was inspired by the design of the Loteria cards (a mexican popular game) and the struggle of the EZLN in Chiapas, Mexico. I'm really happy with the turnout and maybe I'll make it into a series based on different Loteria cards.Here's a part of the Manifiesto Zapatista that I really like :)
"Nosotros nacimos de la noche,
en ella vivimos, moriremos en ella.
Pero la luz sera manhana para los mas,
para los que hoy lloran la noche,
para quienes se niega el dia.
Para todos la luz.
Para todos todo."
in english:
"We were born from the night,
we live in it, we will die in it.
But light will be tomorrow for most,
for those whom today cry the night,
for those whom day is denied to.
For everyone light.
For everyone everything"
