Set of 16 screen prints that make up the "Whiiims" Series presented in an exhibition at the CPS gallery in CCB (Nov 9-Dec 4, 2016).

The "Whiiims" collection establishes a contemporary approach to the famous prints of Goya's "Los Caprichos" series, where Rico Sequeira applied all his creative imagination, enhancing the chromatic virtues of the screen printing technique.

The title of the series, an onomatopoeia that refers to the translation of "caprichos" (in English, "whims"), accentuates Rico Sequeira's influence and love for comics in his artistic journey.
