Right Now, right here, right then, right there

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.

Parallel to the exhibition the book 

El perro de las tres y cuarto, Anja Krakowski

Starting December 12, 2025. “True power is not exercised with shouts or whips, but in subtle details, in acts that seem insignificant but which nullify other beings with impunity.” https://valenciaplaza.com/arte-museos-fotografia-valencia-comunitat-valenciana/la-biennal-de-mislata-miquel-navarro-2025-inaugura-pasados-activoscon-las-10-obras-finalistas   Onomatopoeias (The Torment of the Flies) Onomatopoeias (The Torment of the Flies) is an artistic exploration focused on the rescue and re-signification of obsolete processes and forms, decontextualized from their original function, as a strategy of symbolic resistance against urban and institutional violence. The project is articulated around Taller March , a former craft workshop space in the Carmen neighborhood of València, reactivated as a place for production and active thought. The piece is constructed from manually stretched silver threads that reprodu...

Mirando desde el atalaya

  Looking from the Watchtower”   was born from the reactivation of a workshop that had been silent for years, threatened by urban pressure and speculative policies. There, through a slow and complex process of manually stretching fine silver, I create threads that become the basis for small sculptures. This patient work allows me to resist the accelerated and impersonal logic of industrial production. Each piece is both memory and transformation: a gesture of healing and a way of opposing the power narratives that attempt to erase spaces and experiences. “Mirando desde el Atalaya”  nace de la reactivación de un taller que llevaba años en silencio, amenazado por la presión urbanística y las políticas de especulación. Allí, a través de un proceso lento y complejo de estiramiento manual de plata fina, genero hilos que se convierten en la base de pequeñas esculturas. Ese trabajo paciente me permite resistir la lógica acelerada e impersonal de lo industrial. Cada pieza es a la...
