Tittle: "Fictional Landscape #1 " . Technique: Silicon carbide, graphite and carbon on canvas. Dimensions: 3.20 x 2.90 m / 9.28 m2 .Year: 2017
This material is Silicon Carbide which has a similar appearance to the black sand of the beach. With minimal amounts of white light it emits very subtle reflections… Having this material in your hands resembles having the sky in your hands. This Painting is part of a larger installation made in these 3 materials, where you can experience the effect of silicon carbide and the sensation of inhabiting its material.
Registration of the installation made with silicon carbide in a space with total darkness. This video does not give enough account of the real sensation of space since the camera does not adapt gradually to the little light that there is, as it does the eye and the body, after some time (approx. 15 seconds) they have total clarity of the space. In this installation, this moment of absolute darkness of the beginning is important, as the spectator immerses himself in the experience of an abysmal space that he discovers increasingly thanks to the reflections emitted by the material, until he fully recognizes it.
