¡GOL!

The series of paintings ¡Gol! (Goal!) unites international futbol/soccer players from rival teams and countries whose geopolitical relationship has long been fraught with colonialist and decolonialist legacies. The players are caught in mid-flight embracing and erotically kissing each other, giving new meaning to the jogo bonito (beautiful game).
