RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, RIGHT THERE, RIGHT THEN -
the dog at quarter past three, Espai La Rambleta,
Valencia, Spain, 2019
Concepts and ideas are travelers and yet current ideologies
try to fix them. Frozen, in shape and under artistic pretext, they rise to glorify an event, a historical moment or a precise power. Under changing perspectives (of history, context or positioning) statues become an anachronisms of collective identities, revealing inequalities and asynchronies.
[...] Right now [...] is conceived as an fictional essay that explores the complicate relationship between memories, collective identities and foundational myths and with signs of fixation, in a time characterized by the apparent immediacy and its emphasis on the eternal here and now. Through accumulation of images, objects and layers of information, a narrative insists on its own contradicting nature, caught between the Borges's hypermnesia and Orwell's imperative oblivion.
