Nada nuevo
La Cabeza sosteniendo
mientras tanto
fornicación dondequiera
ojos, mente y corazones
la música onomatopéyica ensordece
la voz de los mártires
los sistemas de persecución creciendo
sagaces
la gran ramera se regocija
en el ultimo sorbo de la copa
sangre adentro
monstruo deplorable
todo mal es apostata
generativo
desde aquel jardín roto

Hidrante is pleased to present Música y Mártires - Volumen 1, by Ricardo Morales-Hernández. Ricardo Morales-Hernández’s (San Juan, 1980) practice is founded on a personal, political, and cosmic story, which is worked through analog, digital, and biological mediums. His extemporal drawings recall paradisiac imagery that evokes musical notations and is reminiscent of the natural ecosystem of the colony of Puerto Rico. Historical relationships such as primitive markings, medieval marginalia, neo-expressionism, and post-digital aesthetics are traced through his work, which also questions the dominant morphology of contemporary art.
