Mesarbol
(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Prado Amaya, Ricardo; Sinning, Guillermina; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2363-4068
Ricardo Prado Amaya's thesis explores the complex relationship between art, nature, and industrialization from psychological, sociological, anthropological, and symbolic perspectives. Drawing on childhood memories and dream experiences, the author expresses a profound anguish regarding the destruction of the environment and a need to channel these emotions through art. Industrialization is criticized for fostering an individualistic and destructive attitude in humans, disconnecting them from their natural bond.
This reflection is articulated in a process of artistic creation that aims to recover that lost connection. Through sculptures such as the proposed "Mesárbol" (MyTree), Prado merges organic and industrial materials to symbolize the conflict and possible reconciliation between the natural and artificial worlds. The tree, the symbolic axis of the project, represents life, cosmic connection, and cultural memory. The works seek to generate spaces for contemplation, denunciation, and reflection on our ecological responsibility, advocating for a revaluation of art as a tool for inner dialogue and social transformation.
Mudra
(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Castro Sierra, Juan Francisco; Llamosa Escobar, David Francisco; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8039-9730
The "Mudras" project originates from a personal and introspective search. The author starts from an intimate experience with the movement of her hands, linking this gesture to a spiritual, symbolic, and artistic dimension that becomes the central focus of her artistic proposal. Through working with diverse materials and techniques such as engravings, ceramics, oils, and sculptures, she develops a self-referential visual language inspired by the concept of mudras, ritual gestures used in meditation and yoga. These mudras not only refer to the body, but also to energetic and dimensional structures, proposing an interpretation of art as a form of connection with other realities.
The "Mudric Object," a sculptural piece conceived as a mirror of reflection and transformation, condenses the author's vision: an art in constant mutation, incorporating notions of topology, rhizome, fractals, and formal transformation. In this proposal, mudras are understood as living, dynamic entities, impossible to define outside of themselves, that challenge traditional formal categories and evoke the infinity of becoming. From an existential and poetic perspective, the project argues that the true power of art lies in its capacity to be inexplicable and in its power to resonate in the silence of being.
