Joan Bennàssar - Raons humanes

Joan Bennàssar, an artist from Mallorca who lives in the town of Pollensa, has dedicated his life to art through the construction of different sculptures. From people with tall silhouettes to paintings of all types of sizes, Bennàssar is one of the best artists of the island. Now, after many years of experience, he brings to life his most recent work, started between 2019 and 2020.

In this, the artist seeks to confront man and the conflicts that involve him, such as globalization, artificial intelligence, climate change, and many other topics. That is why he and his son have decided to make a documentary that explores the creative process of the work, from its beginning to its final result. Furthermore, the documentary, called 'Joan Bennàssar - Human Raons' (coming from his own name and the title of his latest work), adds a prologue and an epilogue that was filmed in 2023. In them, he will ask himself what has changed in his homeland since 2020, when the documentary was filmed.

'Joan Bennàssar - Raons humanes' shows the real-time creation of the artist's statues, often made on the beach while people see the progress. The documentary is distributed in Spain by the company A Contracorriente Films.
