Inspiration for their Dual Duel:
I have worked several times with LeonKa in the support of the wall, but this is the first time that we have collaborated in paper format. I like to work with him, because I like his work, for his philosophical depth and his refined aesthetics, we bond quite well. And one very important thing for me is to work with an artist with whom I have a great connection, and with him I have it. I think we have created some beautiful pieces together. ~Socatoba
