Smile, You are in Spain
Luís Lázaro Matos
Smile, You Are In Spain takes its name from the five-year tourism campaign launched in 2004, where sunlit beaches and carefree youth offered the promise of escape. From the television, Raffaella Carrà’s Hay que venir al sur plays — a tourism jingle turned ironic.
Entry to the room is through a painted waterfall, a theatrical mural that falls like a curtain. Beyond it lies a reimagined paradise — part memory, part myth — where fantasy softens the satire and the mood remains deliberately light.

Luís Lázaro Matos
Luís Lázaro Matos was born in Évora, Portugal, in 1987. He currently lives and works in Bruxelles. The art practice of Luis Lazaro Matos is mostly expressed through drawing, sculpture, animation and installation, inherently diluting the frontiers between disciplines such as design and fine art. Luis’ work often presents itself through architectural counter-proposals, reflecting his interest in drawing as a critical and satirical tool through which modernist and post-modernist utopian visions may be analyzed and reinterpreted.
