La hora gris : una mirada panorámica al acto de creación plástica en siete artistas locales

Abstract

Dear reader, this document reflects the result of a debt I had with life and with myself. "The gray hour; A panoramic view of the act of plastic creation in seven local artists1 "establishes a study of what has been the creative action of this group of plastic artists (including myself) who reconstruct and interpret reality with images (paintings, engravings, objects, drawings) . This study is basically based on two factors: their ways of doing and the feelings involved in the construction of their images. In this way it is a matter of arguing and understanding the details of this creative activity, and equally, trying to establish the points of convergence and difference between them, which are seen and compiled from a narrative of everyday happenings, as another way of building our Collective memory, which connects the internal and creative feelings of these artists with the external socio-cultural practices in which they unfold. This study also presents a creative result in the form of "book-art", which includes in its plastic and aesthetic configuration some aspects of the written document (narrations, data, concepts, definitions and so on), linking them with fragments of images produced by the authors themselves Artists in correspondence with personal graphic interventions, to make this piece a plastic and collaborative version of the research. Also included in this report is an Appendix with a series of stories developed during the Master's process and during the research itself. Stories that allowed to ratify the type of writing to use and strengthened the resource of the histories of life as fundamental element in the investigation.
