En este cuadro, Jori inmortaliza uno de los momentos más esperados del día; después de una jornada de trabajo, las vecinas se reúnen en la calle huyendo del calor para charlar animadamente, eso, sí, el tiempo no puede perderse así que aprovechan para realizar labores de costura. Ajeno a ésto, al pobre gatito sólo le importa que, en un descuido, le han arrebatado su silla.
In this painting, Jori immortalizes one of the most anticipated moments of the day; After a day of work, the neighbors meet in the street fleeing from the heat to chat animatedly, but time can not be lost so they take advantage to perform sewing. Oblivious to this, the poor kitten cares only that, in an oversight, his chair has been snatched away.

Jori Duran, a contemporary artist based in Spain, discovered the world of painting at a tender age, catalyzed by a serendipitous encounter with the esteemed watercolorist, Blanche Odin. The brilliance of Odin's talent left an indelible mark on Jori, prompting a profound and challenging decision to face the blank canvas and embark on a personal artistic journey.
Being entirely self-taught, Jori's mastery of technique unfolded gradually, marked by the rapid emergence of a fragmented and somewhat geometric perspective that permeated their view of the world. Jori contemplates whether painting is a means of seeing differently, challenging conventional perceptions and inviting viewers to explore alternative viewpoints.
The essence of Jori Duran's work lies in a deep exploration of humanity in all its facets. Faces, irrespective of age, occupy a central place in Jori's artistic vision, inspiring a figurative approach aimed at conveying the moral and physical beauty of each being in its entirety.
Color becomes a vibrant celebration for Jori—an offering extended to the spectators of their art. It is a visual feast intended to infuse joy and warmth, particularly in the midst of the sometimes dreary and gray moments of life.
For Jori, painting unfolds as an exhilarating journey where imperfection reigns supreme. The pursuit of an elusive perfection becomes a lifelong endeavor, an exciting path where nothing is ever perfect. This perpetual pursuit raises the question: Could this quest for the unattainable be the secret to a certain happiness? In the evolving world of Jori Duran's art, the answer unfolds on each canvas, inviting viewers to partake in the captivating and never-ending exploration of beauty and imperfection.
