In this piece, Lalo Cruces reinterprets “King”, the work with which he won the Ibercaja National Youth Painting Prize a decade ago, updating it from a more ironic, urban, and emotional language.

The crowned figure, now accompanied by wings and symbols of fragile power, speaks of leadership, love, and vulnerability. It is a visual reflection on how icons, success, and the artist himself evolve over time.

An award-winning work, with history, that connects the author’s past and present.
