RM (formerly Real Madrid) was founded in 2015

RM deals with the mechanics of revelation in reaction to the secrecy of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and with their impact on the experience of pariahs in disguise. STDs contributed to the gathering of subcultures around their struggles, while carrying a shame that historically contributed to the othering of communities. Alluding to irony and the use of gruesome humour, RM works around the linguistic detours employed to protect the unspoken, turning it into a tool to reclaim one’s own story. Regional products, including fruits and territorial diseases, have been and are ways to indirectly refer to sexual struggles. Instead of excluding them, they root the person to their geographical provenance. Allegorically dressing a medical status with the extra-virginity of olive oil, spilled on the white and red blood cells of a caprese salad.
