ARRITMIA

Rodrigo Echeverria + Hugo Robledo
08.18.22 – 09.18.22

About:

An arrhythmia is an irregular heartbeat. This title refers to life and poses a metaphor about the act of painting. The painting, being fixed, would be a momentary interruption in the flow of life.

The heart is a valve that regulates the rhythm of life. It is also a room, since it has cavities that fill and empty in a cyclical manner.

The way in which each of the painters works is situated in opposite places. In Rodrigo´s case, the act of painting originates from the observation of reality and is transferred to pictorial thought, that is, from the outside in. In Hugo´s case, his work arises from the construction of visual-spatial thinking towards the tangible object. It would be the reverse operation, from the inside to the outside.
