Repetition of a celestial archetype (Obra Parasol I)

 

 

What do you see when you look up?

​

We imagined a painting that offers refugee in its simplest form: a parasol.

​

We desired a flexible and enormous space that provided shadow.

​

How does this celestial landscape look?

​

We brought two skies, two spaces that inhabit one,

They share the parasol, like vignettes that capture different times.

​

There is a visible sky and an invisible sky.

​

The invisible sky is so big we cannot portrait it all.

​

What we cannot see we imagine.

​

We give it form with abstract shapes that flirt with the symbol.

​

Is it a circle or a planet? It’s both, and more!

​

It’s a coming and going between what you know and what you wish to know.

​

Between what’s yours and what’s ours.

​

Between saying and suggesting.
