The artist’s interaction with his immediate environment regarding urban spaces that make up daily life lends Larrañaga’s work a plural taste of inquisitive originality; for this purpose, Gorka recycles objects and advertising brochures from his city wandering to create pictorial-photographic-sculptural works that constantly verge on abstraction and create open spaces for the viewer.

Mexico City’s valley, with its large dimensions, seems as an exaggeration of any possible form for any other city. That is why its inhabitants call it the monster city: “I’ve had to put up with it, I’ve had to live it, I’ve had to feel it… and sometimes, I’ve hated it, because Mexico City is a city without pedestrians… and I am a pedestrian…”

This look’s approach is placed between the universe of the enthusiasm and the overflowing excitement that the city causes, where One and All dissolve and cancel each other to finally define themselves in the context of what Mexico City means. Uncovering its unfathomable mysteries is one of the purposes of this project.
