Raphael Torrells’ new book, Fabulaciones (2025) is now available. It is released as part of the “Edades de Siddhartha” series by Editora Educación Eggente (EEE).
Description (from EEE): Despite being like a fascist Big Technology The planet-striking capital is permeated by aesthetic eroticism and the mystical evolution of leaves, dew, bodies, colors and words, and spirits continue to emerge. This treasure trove of this book is illuminated. The author, Puerto Rican painter Rafael Trells, is described as a poetic prose, a text that is composed of “between joy and confusion.” Fabulaciones It offers tiny microfiction and proverbs, stories and poetry, expression and symbolism, painting and writing, and the Ode formula for imagination in the midst of defenselessness.
The book starts with a “Hurricane” [that] I’ve started staying.” [el huracán [que] Llegó ParaQuedarse]And closes with the mother’s transition. [la señora de la luz]. Written between 2016, the year of the fiscal control committee and the imposed Promesa law, 2024, the year of reelection on the far right of the colonies and empires – the flash of light you hold in your hand will support you with hope like a secular temple. All the words and illustrations in this book – the womb that gives birth to him at the same time as the creation of the painter’s hands – honour the insanity of creation, mythology and fortune-telling, with the assurance that “the star appears under the eyelids.” [debajo de mis párpados eclosionan las estrellas].
