FE ESPERANZA Y CARIDAD

We could think of the superheroes as P2P icons, a concept first raised in the context of San Precario, the patron saint of the precarious.

San Precario was invented as a symbol or icon in which all the different experiences of the precarious could invest their desires.

Large models of San Precario have been carried round on demonstrations, like the saints parades of Catholic countries.

The superheroes are a variation on this theme that address the problem of how people’s subjective understanding of themselves can limit their possibilities.
