Overview

Atelier Morales Hermanos Enemigos, 2009 ‘Our most bitter enemies are our own kith and kin. Kings have no brothers, no sons, no mother!‘ - Honore De Balzac It is an oxymoronic title the one given to this last work by Atelier Morales, Hermanos Enemigos. Brothers are supposed to be a close knit team and work towards the same goal. It is certain that arguments are expected but not to the extreme that they become enemies. The shared genetics, parenting, cultural and social beliefs during their upbringing and development should guarantee that brothers will always find a way to get along, never really becoming enemies, even after long disputes. It’s often said that blood is thicker than water.
