ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This ink drawing was inspired by the medieval concept of "tree of life", which appeared as a guidance for living. I tried to apply that idea to our contemporary times, by alluding to the complexity of today's existence. This work was already sold and it is in a private collection.

Maria Clara Iglesias Rondina (M.C. Iglesias) is an American-Argentine-Spanish artist who lives and works in Madrid, Spain. ARTIST'S STATEMENT: My art constantly moves between two tensions: a mode of inner communication and visual language, and an impulse to provoke a moment of reflection in the viewer. In the construction of those tensions, I am influenced by different literary and philosophical sources, as well as by great artists who have created their own worlds, such as Bosch and some medieval anonymous miniaturists. The medium that I employ conditions the form of my visual language. In my drawings I tend to create intricate paths and figures that aim at channeling complex ideas and thoughts, whereas in my paintings I deploy a more playful language that, although profound, eludes such complexities. Finally, through my artworks I try to search into the idea of “mystery”, a part of existence that only generates questions and wonder. Similarly to Hamlet’s words to Horatio, my art encapsulates Shakespeare’s reflection: “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio/ Than are dreamt of in your philosophy” (Hamlet, I.v.167-68).
