On paper « SWAB Barcelona Art Fair

This program is curated by Carolina Diez-Cascón, and showcases a selection of artworks sharing a common denominator: “Paper is a thin material produced by pressing together moist fibres of cellulose pulp derived from wood, rags or grasses, and drying them into flexible sheets. It is a versatile material with many uses, including writing, printing, packaging, cleaning, and a number of industrial and construction processes”?

This edition presents 7 projects that reflect on the past, the present and the future.

Simplicity and geometry are the starting point of the program, and present an assembly between those things quotidian and ordinary with present time. This section generates conceptual spaces that store memories and analyzes deterioration over time.

Paper symbolyzes testimony, a generation that claims analogical over digital as a way to mark our steps, as a medium to decipher digital registers.

Swab on Paper presents landscapes that symbolize time deterioration through the wastage of paper, an almost meditative world that transits between spacial and geometrical boundaries.
