City Skin is an exploration of the city’s emotional surface — a landscape of desires, fractures, idols, and fading conversations. In these photographs, Ricardo Picón isolates the accidental compositions that emerge from torn posters, layered advertisements, graffiti, and moments of urban decay. What begins as damage becomes language; what begins as a wall becomes a living archive.

Each image captures the residue of human presence: longing painted over anger, nostalgia layered upon exhaustion, humor dissolving into weather and time. Through titles like Magic Booth, Crossed Dream, Aspirational Game, Love Faded, and Heart in Shreds, these walls reveal themselves as characters—bearing memories, secrets, and confessions left behind by strangers.

In City Skin, the city is not a backdrop. It is a body: marked, written on, wounded, and continuously reborn.
Every surface becomes evidence of a life passing through.
Every layer adds a story.
Every wall is alive.
