Warranty Included ▷ El desove de una conciencia Naturgemälde by Marta de los Pájaros, 2021 | Collage Sculpture

The Voices of Nature in Six Silences is a series born in response to this situation, like a capital ENOUGH that implodes soundlessly in a white-on-white human landscape, yielding space and prominence to the colorful voices of nature. Six works, six spatio-temporal silences that grant us another kind of rhythm, less hurried, to reconnect horizontally with nature; to embrace true freedom, the kind we achieve by listening, silencing the noisy monologues of our Self, without imposing our own identity on the world and with great dialogue and respect for what is different; to the shedding of the dominant instrumental attitude in favor of a more disinterested one, which offers us the opportunity to see beyond ourselves and understand that we are simply one among many other species that co-inhabit this planet.

Six collages that are formally resolved as mathematical fractions whose common denominator is always the same: human silence. Compositions whose visual weight resides in a nature that makes itself seen and heard; which emphasizes the importance of understanding animals, including us, as inhabitants of their ecosystems.
