En la oscuridad, almas razonables sueñan del mismo modo

We start from the basis that the only constant in life is change. But for some reason we foster a culture of the inherited, the eternal and the static.
Byung Chul Han explains in his book Shanzhai that in the East works of art are dynamic pieces: artists collectively create the same work, replicating it over time and that is what gives it value.
The proposal of this exhibition consists of generating a dynamic landscape, where the drawing is presented as a mutable work.
Light, shadow and darkness introduce the dynamic into the stable work. A play of light and shadow in the landscape that, at the time of contemplation, is absent and present.
The lights will be controlled using a program called Domotics so that the succession of the light spectrum is projected onto the works, dimming automatically and generating the absent/present landscape. The dynamic concept for the exhibition could only be thought of through collaboration with Arturo Peruzzotti, Jose Maserazzo, Agustina Alvarez Costa and Agustin Cosenza. Peruzzotti, an architect specialized in lighting and its study, was the one who devised and designed the lighting composition capable of generating this play on the works. Maserazzo and Alvarez Costa were in charge of the hardware of the proposal.
