King (A Portrait of Michael Jackson)

It was presented in Spain for the first time to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the release of «Thriller,» the best-selling album in music history.

The project delves into the star-fan relationship. The characters are depicted in their absence from the projections of the fans who purchase their records, worship them, and essentially elevate them to stardom. The portrait of Jackson was filmed in Berlin. A group of fervent admirers of the star were invited to a professional recording studio and given the opportunity to individually perform «Immaculate Collection» and «Thriller,» from the first song to the last. The artist explains it like this: “I wanted to replicate the sing-along experience one has at home when listening to a beloved record, but under professional recording conditions. Apart from this, I made no attempt to direct these fans; they chose their attire, props, and how they wished to interpret the album. Some danced and sang as if their lives depended on it, while others timidly navigated through the experience.”
