The video that presents the project "Create the father. Kill the father" is only the documentation of a complex artifact. The real piece consists of the rear projection, on a large-format translucent screen, of an action that took place on May 12, 2015 at the Cuenca Fine Arts Faculty. This action consists of the flooding of a tank, inside which is the clay modeling of a seated male figure, my father.

​

"Create the father. Kill the father" was exhibited in 2016 as part of a very emotional project in collaboration with the artist Mamen L. Villacañas, mother of Daniel Lopez. The exhibition "Sin Sin Concebida" took place in the cultural space Iglesia de San Lorenzo de Úbeda. The project establishes a dialogue between the two proposals of mother and child, articulating a critique of a social and institutional nature to show the mechanisms of exclusion and blame exercised against single-parent family models.
