Cuando Entras y Sales

Sheroanawe narrates that in the jungle, when a tree dies of natural causes, falling due to rain, wind or old age: its trunk will be covered with nutritious and beautiful fungi. When a tree is felled with an ax or chainsaw: its body rots without generating any new organisms. From death a new life arises, which is perpetuated in food that nourishes other bodies and thus a balance is maintained.

His drawings depict a stable moment of places that are constantly changing, except they never die, nor do they transform. What they do is depict the subtlety of the systems where life and death can live simultaneously in one body.

When you enter and leave, says Sebastián Fierro, the body stops. It does not live in a permanent place, therefore preventing space and time from imposing its dogmas. Following this logic: that place in the middle can be understood as a murky area that allows two
coexisting spaces to be seen. Inside and outside they inhabit the same location, just as life lives in the dead trunk of a tree.

María Isabel Rueda’s drawings, conceived in Montes de María, suggest a cosmic landscape in which the sky, nature, art and women flow together in a mystical and poetic journey. The stars become feminine thought that transforms into a fabric that is inspired by the rhythm of the mountains and transports them to life. The woman who is linked to an image of a spider: weaving mortal architectures, generating a home that is both a trap and a map, manifesting itself in the work as an expanded being.
