El gallo celestial
Andrea Santamarina3.630 €Concept
This collection is inspired by Jorge Luis Borges' "Book of Imaginary Beings" and pays homage to the tradition of painting on Talavera ceramics, a craft historically linked to the work of women. Animal motifs, present in the popular ceramics of different cultures, are reinterpreted here with a nod to the mythology and legends of Spanish-American literature, and with graphic references to Beatus of Liébana. The author enlarges the format of these pictorial pieces and uses a high colour scale to bring new value to this tradition, reclaiming the importance of preserving the artisanal cultural heritage and making the feminine role visible in its transmission.
