Agés is located in a strategic place San Jacob´s way. It is a part of the last stage before reaching Burgos; This location makes this village to be linked to concepts such as movement and shared spaces, one of the bases of this artist's work.
Nature is one of the main topics of his pieces, whether animal or vegetable aspect, this time as a flock of birds.
Continuing with the idea of migration, so decisive in the rural environments of the Castilian lands, Taquen brings the flight of some GARZAS REALES to connect these roads. This image continues a story about the need to travel, to look for habitable spaces, to explore and interact in community.
"Sometimes we travel by choice and other times by obligation. Sometimes knowing the destination and sometimes not.
This tipe of birds ,Garzas reales, flying in groups, cross Europe from south to north with the rise in temperatures, looking for less hostile places for life.
Burgos and the Castilian lands become an area of passage and pause, to regain strength and then continue. A place shared between those who are and those who pass, between inhabitants and pilgrims, between architecture and painting. "
With this proposal, the need to inhabit spaces is vindicated, without invading them, without losing the intrinsic character of a place, such as its architecture, showing how a respectful coexistence between what exists and what comes to stay is possible
