STATEMENT

Felipe Mujica. 32a Bienal de Sao Paulo, 2016.

Nutrition of visual codes related to geometric abstraction is one of the central axes of the work of Felipe Mujica. Modernism and its ideals, the perception of the space and the cultural context of the 70’ are the themes you explore in a variety of formats.

 

The productive process, is constructed with the generation of the links, by using a collaborative and social, linking his work with the other through the organization of exhibitions, projects, publications, among others.

 

From facilities with panels, fabric, drawing, prints and sculptures ephemeral, the chilean artist explores the artistic avant-garde movements as Russian constructivism, the Bauhaus school and modernism in Latin america, among other topics, with the aim of investigating the social status and symbolic place in different cultural contexts.

PROJECT

Curtains

 

It is titled the project can be linked to the sculpture textile with which She has gone from the dialogue space to include the mobile character of the surfaces, or vertical planes making them move within the precincts exhibition, following the geometry virtual architecture, printing its lines and causing a change in the organized space for the own curtains according to the established schedule.
On the other hand, has included a symbolic value in the project on the approach to the world of the artisan tradition in the making, making contact with communities and involucrándolas in the production, which will put their stamp depending on the place where it is exposed to.

In parallel, the graphic production, always present in the body of work of Mujica, we see it reflected in a broad spectrum, from the editorial production of catalogues to the preparation of drawings and it is here where it appears another project, as old as the curtains, linked to the production of silkscreens with the character of-a-kind work which in its representation dealing with the iconography psychedelic projections in both Latin american and north american accent in the theme of op art and kinetic art.
