PMU is the acronym for Pari Mutuel Urbain, an organization which manages betting on horse racing and other sports in France. By extension, the PMU is the place, often a café or tobacconist, where you can bet on sports and horse races. This series of paintings is the result of my life experience for approximately a year in the suburbs of Paris, where in addition to the hardness of the work, I was constantly confronted with this reality of cafes/bars where emigrants gathered around a coffee betting on everything, euromillions, football, etc., trying to get lucky believing that would free them from their prison that is the condition of slave and immigrant. These works were designed and executed for an exhibition at the LaClef cultural center in Saint-Germain-en-Laye.
On a formal as well as an ideological level, it ends up reflecting the derivatives of my master's thesis and the "Football Matters" project and the problems pointed out to society in that period.
