Alicángaro: General name that is given in some parts of Colombia to any large insect with wings, to a bird of exaggerated proportions and repulsive appearance, or to any kind of repulsive or dangerous creature whose appearance is unclear. It is colloquial and generally festive.

« Again and again, the duo investigates the phenomenon of something —the Alicangaro—that doesn’t exist. Their search for the enigmatic creature manifests in an absurd set of objects and instructions. Like a dead-end, the obscure puzzles are lacking a solution. The artist’s material choice suggests the only possible clue. Making their artworks predominantly with graphite, they sculpt, draw and invent a dense aesthetic experience. The resulting works commemorate brittleness and relentless mark making. In another series of graphite drawings, they examine trash cans and further reflects on visibility and non -existence. »
