One Dollar-For centuries, the term "dollar" has appeared in all economic, political, and social spheres at a global level. The world economy, wars, and power games are affected by the influence of the dollar, which has become a significant phenomenon in the transformation of contemporary societies. For its part, the one-dollar bill, although it currently does not represent an important economic value, has, as a unit, become a symbol of the economic and cultural values of the West. Since the Pop Art era, artists, designers, and cartoonists have used this iconic green bill as a canvas for countless aesthetic interpretations drawn from different disciplines of the graphic arts. Concepts such as humor, political and economic reflection, and social protest appear in the narrative of these aesthetic interventions on the one-dollar bill, which is revalued and takes on an artistic character. "One Dollar" is a collection created by four collage artists who were inspired by the emblematic one-dollar bill to reinterpret and generate an individual story, taking up the symbolic elements and historical values that it represents.
Limbo Mask-Limbo Mask powerful images encompass themes of technology, art, nature, philosophy and politics. An award-winning Collage Artist , his work was projected 1750 sq ft this month at Art Crush London.
Estrujamentes- Digital artist, writer and illustrator, psychologist and philosopher. Through Estrujamentes, María Páramo gives rise to a visual and poetic device of mental transgression, one which creates and recreates fields of experimentation to bring people closer to systems of thought deemed alternative to traditional ones. Her aim is to provoke meaning without the need for rationalization. As a digital artist she has integrated her technical-poetic works into her visual ones, creating images and texts in unison with one another. She chooses digital collage as a painting technique, and reflective writing as an opportunity for subjectification and resistance to a predominantly rational world. Her aesthetics is one of reflective gestures: at the same time cryptic, cosmic and metaphysical.

In his work, you can spot: vibrant colors, black and white elements, handmade ripped textures, circles, squares and triangles. He’s using Blockchain to register his art, which has gone through a transformation process, starting from the destruction of unused paper or materials, to the creation of a new composition.
