Obando works in cultural, social and political interstices looking for ironies and unexpected relationships that show weaknesses and special features of those systems. This artist uses social phenomena as a raw material in a critical and humorous way. For the MDE15, he intends to show two aspects of our society: In Military trucks, he instinctively investigates the extent to which armed conflict may be assimilated into a culture to the point that symbols of a military presence can become fun for adults. In Museum Mixtape, he explores the gap that normally exists between the community and the world of contemporary art.
