His work revolves around the issues that most concern and affect him in his daily life. He generally deals with issues related to ecology, feminism, animal abuse and mental health. Through seemingly happy and funny characters in soft and cheerful worlds, with which the artist coveys much more powerful, serious and sad messages. This juxtaposition is undoubtedly what most motivates and attracts the artist – between the content and the container to represent the shock and incomprehension suggested to him by the existence of the facts of his context. Creator of utopias in which only open-minded characters exist who, like the artist himself, would not understand what humanity is doing in and with our world.
This vibrant mural by Gorka Gil features a fantastical, multicolored tiger with abstract elements and playful, exaggerated features on a green background.
