piety Installation

The piece entitled “Piedad” has five photographic snaps, one of them in big format….. in which you can see a naked baby girl wandering amongst big traps built for the happening. Incence, danger, tension, indefension…. reach out at first sight. But let´s remember that they author requires us to find out mucho more. I consider that the proposal reinforces itself completing each of these sensations in form of chained questions: DANGER : for whom?, who feels the danger: the baby girl, the spectator, the parents ? who arranges the tramps ? of which dangers are we talking about ? INDEFENSION: Must we protect the weak beings ? Must we let tem walk the way, risking that their development could not be desired ? Must a father risk his life or his project of life for his son ? TENSION: Does the espectator need an image of extreme violence, contained or not, to develope humanity ? Has the human being been definitely acustomed to other´s manageable tragedy ? INNOCENCE: if in the previously commented, a supposedly innocent being such as a sheep, turns into a cabe (let´s remember what it is for….. precisely to restrain the innocents of their freedom. In this image I want to question, ot at least raise the possibility of that idea of an innocent baby girl could also not be innocent. If we observe the set of photos we see that is all full of traps. There is a hollow that would correspon to one of them, which is occupied by that symbol baby. The innocent being could even become another ambush, bearing in mind that from all times, children have been used as elements of retention, sujeccion and edification in the basil social nucleus. This is our onw nature. In any case, this personal appreciation ties to all that this image can generate, because its efficiancy resides in the capacity of promoting and arising questions. Besices, Oscar Vautherin´s traps also have a question mark form. installation size , about 30 sq meters
