Mixed Media Objects

 

El Vergonzoso is an absurdist comedy-fantasy stop-motion animation and mixed-media project, composed of a variety of meticulously staged tableaux, connected by recurring themes and characters, reminiscent of Goya's "Caprichos" and "Los disparates". The story loosely follows a man as he is strung along by a group of pig oligarchs who use rhetoric to create their own Manchurian candidate to sow social discord.
