3185CM / Mai Sólorzano / Art

MANIFIESTO

My commitment with artistic creation consists of observing the world, nature and myself, finding small details and highlighting them, reflecting and presenting ideas through the production itself. I work with different materials, modifying and transforming them until they acquire meaning, strength and sentimental charge; until they manage to communicate what I mean to say. I think that a work should be a friendly object, which we make an accomplice, that expresses us or questions us with its mere presence.

3185CM

Mexico´s border with USA measured 3185km, thousands of kilometers of jagged death and injustice, of buried dreams.. 3185cm necklace is a mantra composed of thousands of knots that represent the people who buried their illusions on those kilometers.

Statement

My commitment with artistic creation consist of observing the world, finding small details and highlighting them, reflecting and approaching ideas through production itself. I working with different materials, modifying and transforming them until they acquires meaning, strength and sentimental charge. I think a work of art should be a friendly object, to which we become an accomplice, that express or question us whit its mere presence.

Mi compromiso con la creación artística consiste en observar el mundo, la naturaleza y a mi misma, en encontrar pequeños detalles y resaltarlos, en la reflexión y el planteamiento de ideas mediante la producción misma. Trabajo con diferentes materiales modificándolos y transformándolos hasta que adquieren sentido, fuerza y carga sentimental; hasta que logran comunicar eso que quiero decir. Pienso que una obra debe ser un objeto amigo, al que hacemos cómplice, que nos expresa o nos cuestiona con su mera presencia.
