Impresa en acrílico con base de aluminio y acabado brillante. Se entrega firmada y numerada, además de con certificado de autenticidad. La obra se envía bien protegida con cartón y plástico de burbujas. En el paquete se incluyen unos guantes de algodón para tocar la obra y una postal firmada. * Esta pieza estuvo expuesta en la galería Espai Cavallers (España) durante la exposición individual "Dear Diary". SOBRE LA OBRA: Everyone thinks their era is the best, that's clear, but no one can deny us millennials the truth that the '90s were both tacky and wonderful, and how lucky we were to be born in them: We were the first to wear those plastic chokers that came back in fashion later, our pencils were Alpino, we understood what "teen spirit" smelled like, we heard Lady Di say that there were three people in that marriage, to us the pineapple was blue, our notebooks were Rubio, we saw the birth of the pop princess dressed as a schoolgirl, changing clothes like Sabrina seemed super practical, Cola Cao was cultivated by “a little black man from tropical Africa” (problematic, I know), our first responsibility was keeping a Tamagotchi alive, our Google was an encyclopedia called Larousse, Wonderwall was a big hit, having a cousin who drank Zumosol guaranteed protection from bullies, you had to choose if you were a Bravo or SuperPop girl, eating just one Petit Suisse made you a loser because "I had two," everyone had their favorite Power Ranger, we were the first to say that both Rose and Jack could fit on that door, Boomer was a really long gum, sitcoms became popular with us through Seinfeld and Friends, we saw Dolly the sheep get cloned, cried over Mufasa's death, debated the size of Oliver and Benji's soccer field, understood Pingu (somehow), had a paperclip help us with Word, everything was cured with Mercromina and Vicks Vaporub, we all wanted friends like those from Recess, The Simpsons were the peak of humor along with The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, some were more into Astérix and others into Tintin, at the Olympics we joined Freddie with Montserrat, we had a robot servant named Emilio, learned what telekinesis was thanks to Matilda, believed that t.A.T.u. were really lesbians, everyone had a Flubber, wore jelly sandals to the beach, Canal+ got scrambled at certain hours, if you got up early to watch TV, you’d find the test card, Disney movies started by threatening you with jail if you violated article 270 of the penal code, and we loved saying, "Oh my God, they killed Kenny! Motherfuc*ers!”. The '90s were amazing. So much so that even now, when a bell rings at the perfect moment, we still remember to say we've been "saved by the bell."
