Concept

This project seeks to guide the concept of the narrative of a piece of art, to areas that are melded with the written language. This is accomplished with a gallery installation, using elements of the written word, mixed with the artist's own graphic elements, which creates a new word or project; to create a visual speech, where the formats, supports and elements form words / icono-significants.

The idea is to develop a visual speech about a piece of art, utilizing grammar figures of the chosen language, articulating the elements which are used to find the word's meaning (example: the point, the dash, the asterisk, etc), all melded with the artist's own language of graphic elements.
However, the premeditated need for each artist to develop his own language is questioned as going too far. This is to put into question the language of the piece of art, how to interpret it and how to read it. What is expounded here is a clear form and unique reading of the piece of art; seeking an ideal reading balance, because usually the code or symbol used for the artist and that used for the observer is not the same and is sometimes misunderstood.

Another aspect expounded for this project is that the pieces of art are formed only for their own descriptions.

Descriptions of the artist's pieces of art will form pieces of visual art, whereby the visual speech of a piece of art becomes its own piece of art.

The idea is go to the limit of speech about the piece of art. Does the piece of art have more value for what it is or for what we can say about it? This is the case of a piece of art that talks about itself.

Visually, texts developed for the artist will try to create a map of characters which adjust new pieces of art stuck to the wall, floor or ceiling, depending on the different supports (video, object, etc.).

The development of the art pieces will seek to engrave a unique interpretation of the artist's own work.
