If the posters of the previous editions had to speak well for what was represented, for the author chosen, or for the type of contest, jury and participants, the poster of the Carnival of 2014, by Juan Pedro Hidalgo Sabina, professional of the Publicity and graphic designer, trained at the Fernando Estevez School of Art, will not stay in the saga, in terms of giving talk. The local press said that the City Council convened a contest, in which 46 authors participated, the call was marked by various policies, the popular voting system had to be canceled for fraud and there were criticisms for similar ones with other posters, as the case of the winner or another similar image of The Flintstones . The author suffered harsh criticism because his poster was similar to characters from Monstruos SA or the mascot of the Zaragoza Expo 2008. Juan Pedro, who titled his work Aguitaaaaa , made digitally with professional graphic programs, ensures that there is no plagiarism, and that I use water to identify the character, because in Carnivals we all transform into anything. In addition, Santa Cruz de Tenerife is on the coast and water is part of the symbols of the city (Diario de Avisos, August 2, 2013)
