Act 8: Nuria Canal Uncover
17.07.2008 - 13.09.2008
In this installation the space is literally occupied by transparent threads, almost imperceptibles, but unavoidable. All the threads have their origin on an object, a classical waiting room bench, and are connected to several points of the room creating a chaotic net only visible from determined angles.
Apart from some series of photographs that show us different scenarios, the exhibition proposes a sentimental geography, occupied by these chaotic nets of transparent threads, visible when the lamp falls on them.
Nuria Canal (Burgos, 1965) lives and works in Barcelona. In 1993 she created the Independent Sample of Video OVNI in the CCCB (Centre of Contemporary Culture of Barcelona), that she co-managed until the year 2000.
