yuxtaposicion - viejo cartoon Drawing

This drawing is part of the "juxtaposition" collection. It consists of combining identities that belong to different planes of reality. The face of the old man is the representation of a real individual (a priest who during the 80's was very popular in Chile). And the comic book characters (protagonists of comics for children known worldwide), belong to the plane of fiction. This coexistence between the plane of reality and the plane of fiction is unfeasible in our physical world. However, it is not only possible in Blagui cartoons, but totally natural. Here we have the first tension created by opposite elements, the first duality and the first polarity. The second duality is the coexistence between senescence and childhood. These two stages of human life, that of children on the one hand, and that of the elderly on the other. In this drawing, they coexist and are exceptionally integrated. Old and new generations that seem to be separated by abysses, can find an instant in which they collide fleetingly. This accidental moment in time is what remains frozen in Blagui's drawings.
