Dehiscencia

Artist: Agustina Sogoló

(Dehiscence) Environment, sensation of spatiality, playing with slight control, movement that directs (what I am looking for) Noise. (Dis random lines in short circuit like the randomness of linearity Ociation) I’ll be back.

Technical, aesthetic and conceptual development

Above all, this process of experimentation brought me questions: What comes out? What do I want? Where am I? How can I get out of the rigidity of the loop? What do I say without saying? They were guides to go from the first instance of the process, where I was stuck in a structure that was built or completed slowly, to a development in which I can generate the spatiality that I am looking for.

After investigating I was able to decide more about the possibilities, so I used the references of the collage and assemblage technique to generate this sensation of spatiality and interaction with elements that are independent of each other but with cohesion so that they generate a mutual movement that contains them and the contrast with the “noise” of random lines is more striking, which, being much more automated, leaves the subjective domain.

I liked Toni Simó Mulet’s phrase, about assemblage, when considering the “accumulation of disparate elements, the constitution of heterogeneous parts, which separately maintain their own identity, but which can also function when assembled, they can inoculate a different unity as if it were a mixture of homogeneous elements.”

Also accompanying the context of this creation are the texts by Simón Marchán Fiz “The collage principle and objectual art” and “Environments and playful spaces” that helped me guide my search and give it a written framework, of the latter I want to quote his first words: “The term environment can be used as a mere reference to the inclusion and creative appropriation of the real physical dimensions of the surrounding space, acquiring a charge, a psychological climate, or being limited to a rigid architectural sense and an extension towards “the exterior. In any case it implies a space that surrounds man and through which he can move and develop.”

The artists who influenced me the most regarding this work were: Ben Laposky and Herbert W. Franke in terms of the repetition and scale of the elements, also Frieder Nake and Vera Molnár in terms of structure and rupture, randomness and noise.
