In my most recent work The Hatching (2025), I delved into the animal world versus its technological counterparts, and juxtaposed in a video installation the figure of the falcon with the one of the drone, projecting them unto two glass panels suspended in the corner of the exhibition space, creating an illustion of floating figures that reflect themselves on each other. The research for this work took me to Barcelona, my hometown, where I visited the archives of the city and interviewed Ondroj, an airport falconer. Ondroj used trained falcons to deter birds from the airport area, minimizing the risk of bird strikes to aircraft; besides allowing me to film one of his falcons for The Hatching, he gave me a great insight into the effectiveness of falconry over modern technology for bird control. Ondroj explained that even drones mimicking falcons are less effective at deterring birds than real falcons, ancient predators that trigger a primal fear response drones can't replicate. 

The conversation with him inspired me to take a step further in the creation of the work, and start a series of sculptures in which the tension between materials would be a the starting point.
