Todo por la praxis - TXP is an art and critical architecture collective founded in 2008, whose main focus is the social function of art and direct action. Its objective is to activate artistic practice as a contribution to transformation, creating spaces and devices for critical reflection. The imaginaries they construct address various forms ofpolitical dissent and resistance through collaborative practices, based on the amplification of narratives that intervene in public space. It is currently composed of Diego Peris López, artist and architect from the Polytechnic University of Madrid, and María José Muñoz, visual artist and researcher, who holds a degree in Visual Arts, a degree in Education and is a professor of visual arts at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, as well as a Master's degree in Contemporary Art History and Visual Culture from the Autonomous University of Madrid and the Complutense University of Madrid.

The various works that make up their practice seek to construct other possible imaginaries, analysing current contexts from the challenge of creating, addressing and embracing radical discourses that are antagonistic to hegemonic cultural impositions. They seek to install knowledge and spaces for critical thinking, activating new transcultural subjectivities as a decolonisation of dominant thought. They carry out processes of research, production and action in both geographical and symbolic territories, using agitprop, counter-advertising and visibility or guerrilla communication in critical devices that challenge aesthetic and political narratives.
