- IDENTIFICATION CARD : Are just numbers? What happen if we don't have an id card? In that case we don't have identity for the goverment. Does a paper and a number gave by the goverment supply some kind of identity to a pearson? And in that case, what happen with the people who don´t have these things?
- LOOSE THE IDENTITY: Emigration. Most emigrants don´t carry his identifications in their travel to the other countrys trying to avoid his extradition

One Dimensional Antichrist, 2008 represents the kind of work that G. Mohamed done. His representation about the figurative elements tends to the de-figuration, with ambiguity and broken line draw. His art is about identity, reflexion, concentration and animalist. Main influences are symbolism, surrealism, Lautremont, Duchamp. Sometimes the paintings of Gorka Mohamed express meaningless and absurdity. The loose about identity, the non-recognition of the self and the journey as a way of life are recurrent in his paintings. His paints and drawings part from Novel, imaginary, imagination, concatenation, short novel, and Breton writing. But what became symbol is not the object, but the subject. He displaces to the character what in vanguard art was focused in the object. I learnt love is the most beauty dance of these days.

I really liked the idea of drawing on this facade and the possibility of documenting its demolition soon after the drawing was completed. This project was part of the NON-TOXIC D'ART URBA FESTIVAL, BADALONA 2008 at Galeria Badiu curated by Arcadi Poch and Naomi Daniel. There is an artist called Jorge Rodríguez Gerarda who has been doing a very interesting worck about the Identity. I have seen some one of his worcks in Madrid and is very good.
