His work highlights the constant state of redefinition found Colombian culture as a result of the rise of communication networks and trade around the world.
His works are the result of a world in which we have all become the other.
His pieces are paradoxical, since Nadin Ospina hegemonic ends up turning into the exotic: icons of Western culture, as characters from Walt Disney or Matt Groening, are equated to the works of anonymous artists of primitive cultures.
Ll winner Fernando Botero Prize will also be in Cartagena Marco Mojica.
His work is a breath of simplicity and clarity compared to new modes of artistic representation based on new technologies.

The feeling of insecurity, often justified, and also reflect a culture that revolves around it, becomes an illustration of the relationship that the citizens have with their city and its inhabitants.
