(Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Artes, 2025-10-27) Cedillo Cedillo, María Augusta; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
The artistic proposal comes up after the question: Are there pictorial records of the seven deadly sins from the Quito school at the collections of sacred art in Cuenca (Ecuador)? The answer is yes, however there are few records, such as the case of the work that is currently in the church of San Agustín, the same that occupied the current site of the convent of San Alfonso, for this reason; the following degree project proposes to make digital illustrations based on the seven deadly sins mentioned in the first teachings of Christianity and Catholicism, under the iconographic influence of the Quito school.

El realismo mágico: una construcción de la realidad moderna a través del álbum ilustrado
(Universidad de Cuenca, 2023-10-03) Montalvo Villanueva, Tiffany Isabel; Segovia Zambrano, Cristina Monserrath; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
Magical realism is a stylistic vision applied to various expressions of art. The central point is the complementary presence of realism and magic in the narrative. Through the understanding of this concept, learning its beginning and historical journey, as well as the observation of works and authors resulting from the movement, we understand its main characteristics and thus apply them in a new artistic product that reflects one of the many current experiences in our society. To achieve this objective, we make use of the picture book, a medium that uses images and experimentation to narrate captivating stories to the readers. The story we tell focuses on the monotonous life of Michelle, whom we see growing up under her mother's shadow until she becomes a teenager. Through the use of the characteristics of magical realism, together with the flexibility that the picture book offers to experiment with visual metaphors, we reveal and amplify through forms the emotions that our characters don’t allow themselves to externalize. The reader is given the opportunity to discover an enigma that goes beyond what is apparent, placing them in front of the possibility of interpreting the true meaning that the work offers. This process and interactions opens the door to find the magic that is hidden in everyday life, in the absurd and in things that do not seem to matter.
Genética, poder y distopía: una mirada visual crítica al control sobre la morfología humana en la era biotecnológica
(Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Artes, 2026-03-05) Tarqui Misco, Adriana Alexandra; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
This work addresses the risks and ethical and biological dilemmas of genetic manipulation in humans. What was once considered a distant possibility has become a threatening reality, as technological development now enables not only the elimination of diseases but also the alteration of individuals' physical and cognitive abilities. This situation raises profound ethical questions regarding the control of life and human dignity. Concepts such as Foucault’s biopolitics and Agamben’s notion of homo sacer provide a framework for understanding how power can extend to the genetic configuration of human beings, placing their fundamental rights at risk. The biopunk genre explores these tensions through narratives that merge the organic and the artificial, warning of possible dystopian scenarios and the commodification of life. Within this context, digital painting emerges as a medium for critically reflecting on these challenges by employing visual imagery that encourages public debate. In this way, art becomes a key tool for questioning the limits of scientific progress and anticipating the risks of genetic manipulation carried out without ethical considerations.

Finally, 45 sketches were made, which after a selection would end up resulting in the illustration of 13 stories and the elaboration of the cover of the book "Crónicas Malditas"
Ilustraciones satíricas de la telerrealidad ecuatoriana con un estilo manga
(Universidad de Cuenca, 2020-05-14) Espinoza León, David Bryan; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
AbstractThis thesis is an investigation into the culture of Ecuadorian reality TV, whose final result was the elaboration of eight illustrations of a satirical nature that demonstrate how society lives in this world of spectacularity and need for acceptance.During the elaboration process it was noted that the graphic used by the artists of complaint and social claim is framed in a western style and in the case of the cartoonists the deformation of the canon, for this reason this work tries to promote the graphic style of the manga (canon chibi), as a resource that brings freshness to satirical illustrations.This is not intended to impose as a secondary aesthetic the graphic line of the manga but instead invite the illustrators to explore other aesthetics to capture their ideas.The satirical character in the illustrations has been proposed as one of the most used graphic ways to denounce social problems of all kinds, however throughout this process it was found that this resource, in the country, is very exploited by cartoonists and focused directly on political satire.For that reason there was the need to address another problem that affects society, thus breaking the monotony of political denunciation a bit and denoting that society has other problems that can be reported, problems that can be taken to the graph with another style and with The purpose of promoting reflection by the viewer.Key wordsIlustrations, Manga, Reality T.V. programs, Satire.
Patrimonio vivo: retratos artísticos en paja toquilla como herramienta de preservación cultural en Gualaceo
(Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Artes, 2025-10-22) Ramón Cambizaca, Christian Manuel; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
The visual study of narratives in rural communities in the canton of Gualaceo reveals a reality marked by vulnerability and isolation that deeply affects its inhabitants. Graphic representations highlight the persistent presence of poverty, lack of essential services and social marginalization in the daily lives of these populations. The illustrations capture the complexity of these communities' experiences, evidencing the constant struggle to survive in an environment characterized by scarce resources and opportunities. Challenges such as lack of adequate housing, obstacles to accessing education and health care, as well as extensive job scarcity and very poor working conditions in agriculture are highlighted, as this should not be detrimental to them as it is their main source of income. At the same time, the visual narratives highlight the social exclusion faced by a certain group of people, such as the elderly, women and children, who lack the support and opportunities for their integral development. However, all these illustrations also reflect the resilience and strength of these communities to face daily challenges, highlighting the sense of community, solidarity and creativity as fundamental resources to find collective solutions to their problems.

(Universidad de Cuenca, 2023-09-26) Guamán Macas, Freddy Antonio; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
The new creative currents have encouraged this work, as a more extensive form of representation, to criticize the new spaces of social interaction, taking from the everyday and local cultural the devices to hybridize them, load them with an aura thanks to a personal aesthetic and manifest a kind of wild thought about the future as a society. Appadurai (2021), relates the social life of things with the commodity of new realities, as it is noticeable today, thanks to the great demand within virtual societies that generates social predation and an attempt to insert new agents in cultural reality. This is the result of a graphic of the being and its destroyed environment, which afflicts a work of preservation while increases the sense of interaction with the public, even thinking about the way to work through didactic processes with these same devices for a better management of the creative artisanal sphere for its socialization. The final object was installed in the Waka Cultural Center in Saraguro, several results were obtained according to what was proposed theoretically, as a result of a proposal for local social interaction, which does not perceive an interest in this type of art manifestations. contemporary, rather there is only a like or dislike through the use of virtual platforms, in this case the object remains only under the promotion and spectacle of the networks.

(2020-03-13) Macansela Tapia, Josselyn Elena; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
The main social problems such as the vision of progress, city growth, consumption, technologies, among others. Not only do they attend to human needs, but they appeal to comfort, towards that satisfaction of fantasies for an alleged reach of happiness; where the environment is constantly degraded affecting natural spaces. Reason why, the use and intervention of spaces, as well as resources from the place, is attended to achieve a symbolic return that provides a new life expectancy born of death, establishing benchmarks in the public space for an approach and care of it, also looking at degradation as a creative topic, deconstructing human thought, evidencing the prevalence of innate beauty, in the face of uninterrupted landscapes and affected by individual as a collective action.

Tratamiento artístico de leyendas cuencanas para su tránsito del dominio de la oralidad a la cultura visual dominante
(Universidad de Cuenca, 2024-07-17) Berrezueta Romero, Carlos Omar; Pulla Palaguachi, Bryan Ismael; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
Nowadays, immersion in the currents of Visual Culture resulting from prevailing globalization implies the exponential growth of the world of images and the technological devices used to create, view, and distribute them. This trend favors the abandonment of the world of books and reading, as well as oral storytelling, in favor of essentially visual communication and interaction. In light of this situation, we set out to contribute to the survival of legends by artistically illustrating a case from the El Vado neighborhood (Cuenca) to facilitate its transition from the domain of orality to the currently dominant domain of Visual Culture. Thus, in the series Legends of El Vado, we explore the portrait creation of characters from local legends using digital collage techniques as an artistic expression tool that enables the rescue of symbolic and iconographic elements from the specific visual heritage of the mentioned urban neighborhood. The works address the narrative plane derived from the handling of entirely oral versions, with scenes of quick association. This exercise provides procedural solutions regarding the use of this technique, while promoting self-recognition based on immediate oral tradition, and pride in local memory and culture
Tratamiento digital del art toys con iconografía ecuatoriana, para una mayor participación en las dinámicas de la cultura visual dominante
(Universidad de Cuenca, 2024-03-12) Banegas Cabrera, Leonardo Sebastián; Calle Bustos, Víctor Geovanny
Ecuador's iconographic diversity is affected by the growing popularity of the imposing current of Visual Culture, today dominant, full of standardized representations that at times cancel out the more regional and national expressions. In this context, we proposed to enrich with digitally produced Ecuadorian archaeological iconographies the contemporary practice of Art Toys, increasing the participation of Ecuador in the dynamics of the dominant Visual Culture. Thus, the work Ecua Toys: a visual dialogue with the past works with archaeological iconographic elements, exploring diverse artistic expressions through the use of personalized figures made with a diversity of techniques and materials. These representations reflect the national identity and incorporate aesthetic aspects derived from digital treatment, in an interdisciplinary sculptural proposal composed of two series of three pieces each. These two series, produced with specialized software and retouching techniques for a visual-archaeological reinterpretation, pay homage to the Cañari and Inca cultures, through the Cañari Cashaloma and the Inca Chacana as the supporting base of the former. The set emulates the essence of an Art Toys type toy, with all its parts contained inside, and uses boxes that incorporate the symbolism of an earthenware pot as a container; boxes that play a fundamental role in provoking emotion and surprise before the objects they contain inside. Both series playfully propose to discover the mystery contained in each of the boxes, in an aesthetic realization that fuses the ancestral theme with the more contemporary visuality of the Art Toys product.
