Honorable Mention Fine Papers - Papies Awards 2010

In Gabriel Garcia's modern fables and wonders, a daily and wonderful universe is affirmed, something "boschian," with its dream creatures that simultaneously return us to the drama and anguish of contemporary existence, seen through the lens of satire and caricature. A world that reflects social organization with its imbalances and situations that touch on the grotesque against the backdrop of the cosmic theater that governs everything.
