He still had to pay tribute to one of the greats of street art, Keith Haring, and for this José chose to transform the cat to his style, like the famous dog.

Keith Haring's social dog is one of his icons. By presenting the dog barking, he was calling people to stand up and protest the socio-economic situation of the time, the situation of the 70's and 80's in New York, in fact he was one of the fundamental creators to understand the roots of art related to political protest.
Even Banksy has paid tribute to Haring using this famous dog. Like Banksy, Haring was enormously popular thanks to the visual impact and political energy of his work.

Murcian artist José Soler carries the art of forging in his hands, showing unique and special results that endow his sculptures with character, personality and purity. Playing with colors, lights, geometries, lines and volumes to give beauty and elegance to his works, giving light and purity to the environment where they are placed. Forging the cold and inert metal to give life and evoke emotions and feelings to its observers. Grants and subsidies: 2021: Development of the project "Seda de acero".
