(Mexico, Germany, USA, Switzerland, Sweden, and Spain).
These art projects look critically at our society and questions it. The observer is called upon to actively consider issues and injustices, thus preventing him from becoming a mere consumer.

La ultima Cena

Woodcut / Stencil 2012

La ultima cena mexicana - Yescka 2012

The Apostles represents a part of Mexico’s political, economic and religious elite. The most powerful among them is a well-known drug boss in Jesus’ place. The others are gathered around him, begging for his recognition. They are all sitting at one table, distributing the power among each other. Their thirst for power makes them devour their values, such as freedom and justice, represented by the head of Benito Juárez in the center of the table. They have abused their responsibilities which were given to them from the people.

Yescka's La ultima cena has become a popular image in Mexico. The Museum of Oaxaca showed a large version of it as part of the "Hecho en Oaxaca" exhibit together with pieces from other famous street artists such as Date Farmers, Dr. Lakra, How & Nosm, Lapiztola, MOMO, Nunca, Retna, Saner, StenLex, Swoon and Vhils
