Caracas, our beautiful city! How I miss our big mountain el Avila, that guards the city, always there for us! Caracas lays in a narrow valley surrounded by mountains, a beautiful city, now very deteriorated by the political situation.
This piece is going to our exhibition in Madrid, Spain next May! Stay tunned!
