Zenén Vizcaíno, born in Havana and rooted in Saltillo, presents his works as symbolic stage sets where the intimate, the everyday, and the cultural coexist in a visual dialogue that challenges the academic with humor, memory, and a poetics in constant transformation.

About the Artwork
Las manos en la cabeza presents a surreal scene where severed arms, gas tanks, and mechanical fragments merge into an uncanny tableau. The head becomes a stage of manipulation, where disembodied hands intervene, adjust, or control. With irony and unease, Vizcaíno reflects on power, violence, and the fragile boundary between the human body and its mechanization.
