This work is made with references from female artists since it caught my attention. the symmetry that Lilian Schwartz and especially Vera Molnar use for this work. I really like abstract art and being able to capture it digitally and in the future be able to animate it in turn, It is another way of making and appreciating art.

In this work the number 5 is the protagonist at the end of each code, since I wanted to give a symmetrical and abstract style at the same time. When visualizing it it gives us a sensation depth in gray scale referring to the title of the work; “I obscure” I use these methods because it is what I like to highlight most about some works of abstract art; symmetry and infinity of figures. Valery’s “The Conquest of Obiquity” made me question how I value or apply art, since for his time, according to the artist, there was a limitation when it came to appreciating it because one had to visit specifically places where art is made, at an exact moment, since there was no way to find out where art was made like today when social networks exist to notify us (to visit the places) or even see it through the screen. That’s exactly what it did. that when making art or viewing it, it would be enjoyed more (obviously excepting the subjectivity of each be).In my particular case I think that since I have a lot of accessibility to see art for a technological reason or even To do it, I often procrastinate on enjoying it (doing, watching or listening) and I rethink my relationship. with art, to be able to give it a more important place and not procrastinate it in such a way. That is why this text I relate to this work, being able to do it progressively, visualize it and at the same time have the recipient visualize it and have the freedom to receive it from your subjectivity of art, and thus also enjoy both of this artistic process; being the author herself until reaching a final result that makes each progress of it, from the beginning to the end I enjoyed it more and did not see it exactly as “a job” if not, “an artistic practice” (Brea).
