Lucía Vallejo

Press release:

Lucia Vallejo (Bilbao, 1975) intuitively creates and designs a spetacular  movement of the canvas, while creating a three dimensional sculpture. The swiftness of the folds, leave behind deep curves, rich in shadows and mystery for the viewer to perceive for himself.
‘Al limite’ is a beautifully colorful collection of scultpture, with each piece having its own story to be told.
They are, without doubt, her more baroque works, -said Oscar Alonso Molina- that can be interpreted in the line of some internationally famous works by Lee Bul, and even in a more distant way to the works by Petah Coyne or Matthew Ritchie. For a full enjoyment there is also to be taken into consideration the good scenario created by sheds and enhancing illumination, projecting tenebrists shadows that force the viewer to surround them to conquer them fully. In its turn that invites our own, while melting its shadow with the exhibition space, we are invited to enjoy the baroque development in its peak: when the disciplines tend to spill among each other, further eroding its borders, thus giving rise to a last merge of the world with the artificial scenario created: we live and unfold ourselves in the middle of a rhetoric where the artistic invades the area of what is real, it is proceeding with its blistered body toward us, and ends by enveloping us.
