Un camino como puente

Abstract

Conceived from a naive perspective and based on everyday experience, space simply-is-there, participating in all perception, with a significant lack of meaning without being. The relationship between it and the beings that make it useful isn't tangible. These spaces hold the imprints of different activities that have tattooed their meanings throughout history. Therefore, it is essential that man, using a place, is also aware of his connection to it; this connection appears through the process where the sense of inhabiting unfolds, implying commitment and meaningful appropriation of a space that is fully integrated into the social group to which it belongs. The social dimension of art, its art-life relationships, man-city, man-everyday life, the movement towards an aesthetic experience, the insertion of local culture into the universal, the projection that broadens the vision of spaces in vertical and horizontal relationships are essentially criteria of location, appropriation, and identification that help modern man understand the space he inhabits as a creative space, generating in him a true sense of belonging. My proposal is a work of collective creation where I seek to give meaning to everything outlined above, articulating what Joseph Beuys proclaimed as the "Social Dimension of Art."
