Description

Figure associated with the quote: "Think before you speak. Read before you think. " Fran Lebowitz, highlights the importance of reflection and preparation in our communication and in the formation of our ideas.
The first part, "Think before you speak," suggests that we should be aware of our words and their impact. Speaking without thinking can lead to misunderstandings, conflicts or even hurt others. This part of the quote reminds us that taking a moment to consider our words can be critical to effective and respectful communication. It encourages us to be responsible with what we say, to evaluate our intentions and to consider how our words can be received by others.
The second part, "Read Before You Think," emphasizes the importance of information and knowledge in our thought process. Reading provides us with a solid foundation on which to build our ideas and opinions.
Lebowitz's quote is a valuable reminder that effective communication and critical thinking are skills that can be cultivated through reflection and education.

Presentation

The central themes of his pieces revolve around reading. José Manuel, through his figures of geometric lines in unrepeatable scenarios, seeks to transmit various emotions with the reader. His creative compositions are mainly based on wood.
