 In this phase, we'll choose an artist's work from any of the art branches: painters, sculptors, architects, musicians, etc. From that chosen image or video, each participant will make a personal interpretation of it, without any type of limitation, you can use your knowledge about the work, you can make an interpretation with a touch of humor or you just can write what this work recalls you. **Any format is accepted: text, video or audio.**
