These collages are part of a collection of illustration works that were made at the beginning of the artist&#8217;s career in design and over time (more than 30 years to be precise). The collages were saved among the artist&#8217;s archives of the memories and nostalgia of those days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"963\" height=\"703\" src=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/fabian-giles-page-spread-from-por-algo-se-empieza.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1585\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/fabian-giles-page-spread-from-por-algo-se-empieza.jpg 963w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/fabian-giles-page-spread-from-por-algo-se-empieza-300x219.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/fabian-giles-page-spread-from-por-algo-se-empieza-768x561.jpg 768w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/fabian-giles-page-spread-from-por-algo-se-empieza-210x153.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 963px) 100vw, 963px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>LOW PRICE 19.95 Coco-Cala 60 Joy as a Choice<\/em> by Fabian Giles<br>8.27&#8243;x11&#8243;; collage on paper; 2021.

They are integrated to give shape to another way of working collage just in the middle of this time where Giles has taken up what was first a hobby to consider to an intrinsic part of Giles&#8217; artistic work. Although it has never been exhibited as such, in the following months the works will be in physical format and not only in digital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK<\/strong><br><em>Por algo se empieza<\/em><br>by Fabian Giles<br>E-book; 36 pages<br>$0, $9.00, or $60.22 Mexican Pesos<br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/a.co\/d\/5nlc6vo\" target=\"_blank\">Self-Published<\/a>, Mexico City, Mexico, 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Purchase the book from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com.mx\/Por-algo-empieza-something-startsebook\/dp\/B09XJW5TYF\">Amazon<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/mx\/book\/por-algo-seempieza\/id1618547298\">Apple<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Fabi%C3%A1n_Giles_Por_algo_se_empieza?id=zUhpEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GooglePlay<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Fabian Giles<br \/>\nSelf-Published, 2022<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1584,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Por-Algo-Se-Empieza-cover.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8O04t-px","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1583"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1583"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1583\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1606,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1583\/revisions\/1606"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1584"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1583"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1583"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1583"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
