Picture Book The pact

Ñeko Leguizamón

The Pact is a silent horror book-album that explores the figure of the Güecubú: a demon that killed all the inhabitants of a fort located south of the border of what we now know as Buenos Aires at the end of the 18th century. Framed between the genres of racial terror and bodyhorror, it narrates an episode of the formation of the Argentine nation-state from a critical and fantastic perspective.
