Santiago Ortega, a name that resonates with artistic brilliance and historical significance. Just like Francisco Tarrega Eixea, the renowned guitarist and composer whose portrait captures the essence of musical mastery as he strums his guitar with passion. But Santiago Ortega's interests extend beyond music alone. Like Diana the Huntress depicted in the fresco from the house Stabia at Pompeii, he is an explorer of various domains, seeking knowledge and inspiration from diverse sources. The Spanish Civil War left an indelible mark on Santiago's consciousness. The poster "No pasaran" published by CNT serves as a reminder of his unwavering determination to resist oppression and fight for justice. Engraving of the Ascent to Mount Carmel by Saint Jean of the Cross reflects Santiago's spiritual inclinations. He finds solace in contemplating higher realms and seeks enlightenment through introspection. Santiago also has a deep appreciation for theater arts. The poster for La Barraca, directed by Federico Garcia Lorca, symbolizes his love for dramatic expression and storytelling that transcends boundaries. Just as Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was a philosopher and theologian who delved into scientific research, Santiago possesses an insatiable curiosity about life's mysteries. He explores ideas beyond conventional boundaries to expand his understanding of existence. Giuseppe Pelliza da Volpedo's masterpiece "The fourth state" speaks volumes about social inequality—a subject close to Santiago's heart. He strives to bring awareness through art that challenges societal norms and advocates for change. Like Doryphoros, spear bearer sculpted by Polykleitos during ancient times, Santiago embodies strength both physically and mentally. His resilience enables him to overcome obstacles while remaining steadfast in pursuit of his goals. Pantocrator in Sant Climent de Taüll church represents divine authority—an image that resonates deeply within Santiago's soul as he contemplates spirituality amidst earthly struggles.
