CLOSE UP OR THE RESILIENT INTERIOR

 

This Project has as a starting point a plant called Dandelion that was growing at the entrance of the tapera assigned to the artist. This plant is extremely adaptable and thus it is very easy to see it in various places. It is actually considered a plague.

 

In order to get into the tapera the viewer has to dodge this plant, as long as it is seen and nobody steps on it. But once inside the exhibition  does nothing but refer once and again to that ordinary and insignificant plant. Its different parts and organs are reproduced  and displayed throughout the walls and floor. Suddenly, what appeared to be ordinary doesn´t look ordinary at all.
