The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Biombos...De Ida y Vuelta / Screens


BIOMBOS…DE IDA Y VUELTA. De Mónica Mariscal.
 Exposición conformada por obras que además de movimiento, le ofrecen al potencial espectador dos opciones o dos caras que apreciar en el mismo trabajo. “Hacer Biombos me pareció atractivo ya que así lograba mi objetivo. Tienen dos caras y también movilidad. Un biombo es todo misterioso, por un lado vas y por el otro vuelves. Lo que a unos escondes se lo quieres mostrar a otros. Un poco como el agua o el viento que se cierra, abre y despliega.
