"Dot" drawing has brought popularity to the talented Spaniard not only on the native land, its works are known worldwide (on our site of Kulturologija.ru we already wrote about its pictures). However the present pleasure for Migelja is not glory beams, and the real help to surrounding people. One of its works – Benjamin Kajla's portrait – attempt to support the person who not be helped by the state.

Eight years ago the man who bears today a name Benjamin, has been found without consciousness at steps of fast food Burger King in small town Richmond Hill, the State of Georgia. The American couldn't remember that has occurred and as it has appeared in this staff. At it there were no personal things, on a body there were strong burns, and also he suffered from a cataract.

All attempts to find for Benjamin's relatives have appeared ineffectual: its history have told in several popular talk shows, the information on it has passed on news, student-enthusiast John Wikstrom even have removed a documentary film «In search of Benzhamina». Despite all reasonable efforts, the man and hasn't learned till now, who it actually. To it at all don't give out a social security card as (presumably) it could be issued at it on a real name, and without this document the poor creature can't get a job, open the bank account or receive a credit card.


The documentary film «In search of Benzhamina» has been shown at festival Tribeca Film Festival then Migel Endara has learned about uneasy destiny of the American which is registered on the missing person. He has decided to render it the feasible help, has for this purpose drawn Benjamin's portrait from two millions ink points (on it 138 hours of laborious work have left). Through the site of Endara sells portrait copies, half of obtained money giving to the homeless man. Besides, the artist asks all buyers to put signatures under the petition turned to the government of the USA with the request to give out to Kajlu the new document of social insurance and to balance it in the rights with other citizens of America. By the way, from necessary 25 thousand signatures for today it was possible to collect already 10 thousand.
