Drawing from the Broquilisme series.

This portrait depicts a female figure affected by advanced Broquilism, a supposed morphological alteration of the brain that inexplicably exudes through the skull, transforming its structure into a vegetal form: a large broccoli-like inflorescence. Far from being a pathological deformity, this condition is interpreted here as a higher stage of evolution.

The texture of the hair, transformed into budding greens, suggests not only a physical mutation but also the blossoming of intellect. The work draws on the theses of Dr. Mariona Hereu regarding Encefalocele Bracicalae: despite its anatomical singularity, patients not only retain all their faculties but often develop exceptional sensory and creative acuity.

Thus, this human being is not the result of disease, but a symbol of a superior mental and spiritual state. This mutation is as subtle as it is radical, a manifestation of a new kind of human —astute, extremely lucid, empirical, and attuned to a far more estrambotic (rauxa) biology, one far less ruled by mechanical reason (seny).
