In the words of Emilie Montanelli: "The work of Xan Medina keeps in its essence the features of those expressionist paintings that tore the feelings just by looking at them. They tore the spectator because they provoked in him a stimulus, a movement in some hidden muscle of his organism, if possible in his stomach or brain".
