In some hidden corner of Valparaíso, diners gather to play music, eat, drink and dance the cueca on Sundays. They say that during the period of the dictatorship, in those dark years when all social gatherings were prohibited, many people gathered in that same place always under the pretext of a birthday celebration. Birthdays were never missing as an excuse, while the meetings allowed people to freely talk about everything that worried them. "Pañuelitos rojos" is a nod to this scarce space of freedom that was activated back then.

About our screen prints
Their production begins with the development of the black and white analog photographic film. We create color layers that are added to the photograph and develop them on screen printing matrices. By combining inks and pigments, we create a special color range for each series. Finally, each copy is printed by hand, layer by layer. All the works are numbered, signed, and stamped with its printing date.
