ISABEL AGUERA
In each of these works there is a common denominator: the birds-eye view of an urban jungle. The beauty of these cities lies in the lens through which we perceive and envision them. Each composition immerses the observer in a heightened awareness of scale that defines the space, oscillating between grandiosity of expansiveness and the intimacy of confinement. In these large-scale photographs, I strive to elevate the ordinary to the extraordinary, inviting viewers to reconsider the familiar. I am driven by the desire to challenge the boundaries between reality and seemingly its imaginary one.
BIOGRAPHY
Investigating the territories of her memory, and prospecting fantasized universes where invention and the discovery of new writings are the driving force, Isabel Aguera always keeps composition as a breadcrumb trail in her plastic approach; the arrangement of each of his works resulting from a preparatory work consisting of countless sketches and sketches where the gesture is guided by the desire for a line that would be sufficient in itself, almost disconnected from all thought, where painting and writing coexist. From these tests, like an architectural work, the foundations are then laid for the creative changeover necessary for the realization of her paintings. Far from locking herself into a marked and routine creative process, Isabel Aguera compels herself to push back any comfort zone that often cuts off regeneration and possible mutations, thus seeking to reinvent herself by prospecting territories conducive to new writing. From these often arise freedom, this dynamic necessary for exploration where cross roads and risk-taking are constant. Not caring about the gaze of the viewer or the result, the journey that leads to the work is as important as the finished work itself.
