About this artwork
Copito de Nieve was an important symbol for Catalans and Spaniards. I appropriate this iconic figure because of its connection to Franco's regime through Equatorial Guinea, where he was captured and sent to Barcelona, and because it was a fresh and curious echo on the island where I was born.
The Catalans turned their colonial legacy into a tribute, even though there was division over its Francoist origins. So I decided to remove the snow and pay… homage to it through irreverence.
The politicians in power denied him the statue, proof of the unthinkable limits of power. We have statues of obtuse politicians and unpopular individuals, but not of an icon who moved several generations.
The dull silver and gold, splashed with a red that takes us back to those final days of the animal's suffering.

Ian Mont (Puerto Padre, 1972) paints the memory that exile fragmented.
He exhibited in Cuba during the 1990s until a scholarship brought him to Spain in 2006. He never returned. Between 2006 and 2018, he survived by working in technology, the painting being buried along with the works he couldn't get off the island.
Since 2018, he has returned to oil, burlap, and rough materials, but his practice has mutated. He combines traditional painting with artificial intelligence applied to historical archives, working with photographs of Ellis Island and colonial records to reconstruct what was silenced. The series "Iconoclasms" and "Animals in Conflict" dismantle sacred and national symbols to reveal their hidden violence.
From Barcelona, he develops a visual archaeology of Atlantic migration. He doesn't seek beauty, he seeks testimony. The wound doesn't heal, it breathes.
