View artist portfolioI met Eulogio, an smart and charismatic kid of around 11 years old, in a barber shop of Lima. He came from Huancavelica, the poorest district of the Andes of Peru, for earning some money by working as a polish boots in Lima. He reflects in his smile the attitude of a kid that believes in the future. Eulogio represent thousand of children that works by themselves for helping their parents. He normally live in a village a thousand of meters height and perhaps in a metropolis like Lima he is a missionary of love, innocence and hope.
