Hello, my name is Javier Aguilera and i,m a sculptor from Spain. For the last years this fantastic forum has been both helpful and inspirator for my work so thanks everyone.
For my first post i would like to share with you one of my latest works.
The title is: "you´re in fashion Damien Hirst" and is made in Polychrome resin.
Thanks in advance for your comments.

Thank you Fovos.
It´s very interesting to see the reaction of the people when you use puppies. The last thing i´ve been doing is taking them to the street and tranform them depending on the city i travel; Berlin, Copenhague, Madrid. Here i attach some pics of the first city:
"Seen on the streets of Berlin"

A great new angle on sculpture. Have you tried leaving large amounts in baskets in some park with a sign saying "Hug the Puppies"? It could be pure gold to see people recoil in horror at their cold, solid forms.

Thanks both House of Icons and Yowza. I really apreciate your comments.
Sorry if i write some mistakes, my english is not very good.
Here you´re two more examples of the street puppies.
The first one: "Seen on the streets of Copenhaguen" has been inspirated for the huge account of bikes that i saw there and the other one "seen on the streets of Madrid" is like.. autobiographic.

Javier, I finally got the vodka out of my nose. These are great! Tire tracks? {The autobiography is something we can all relate to.} This may sound cheezy, but you could proabably make a killing selling these to children who can't have a real puppy. Pet shops would eat them up. You could call them "Javie' Babies," So instead of puking on the streets of Madrid, You could puke off the side of your on yacht, anywhere!
Just a thought !

Ja, Ja, Ja , Mah´Crub you know how to encourage an artist. A yatch is very much...but a little boat will be ok.
Thanks again!

These are really interesting, I particularly like the city-responsive ones that are taken out of the gallery context. They are bound to alter the experience and perception of the people who encounter them, which in my opinion is a pretty high achievement for art. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Thanks aedman, totally agree with you. I hope to repeat more works in the streets but needs time to get a really good idea. The street art is something that i feel a lot of respect for.

Ok, thanks all for your comments.
I don´t want you to get bored with puppies sculptures so here you´re the last post about this subject.
This time the piece is about the influence of manga culture in our culture.
So I use again a little amount of puppies to transmit that idea with a little change in the eyes of one of the puppies...
