Connection and Isolation

Connection in isolation (acrylic and ink on paper 50 x 40 cm) found its inspiration during the period when covid quarantines were harshly imposed upon most. While people were effectively banned of interacting in person, most managed to stay in touch or found other ways to provide for themselves by using recent evolutions in communication and information technology.
This painting reflects on the process whereby the discourse of contemporary art and the phenomenon of art is becoming global. It implies a consideration in which a voice is given to the global ‘others’, and an attention to the conceptual shifts within the field.
On the cultural map, it does so with a new policy of promotion of commemorative events and urbanistic expansion, leading to a time that sees the hybridization of the traditional categories of artistic genres in installations.
