About The Artwork

Esta obra se basa en el abandono de sectores rurales de una sociedad centralista, en la cual se evidencia que la actividad cultural y mantención de espacios patrimoniales periféricos son, en su mayoría, dejados al olvido e inutilizados. Espacios o construcciones que, en cierto modo remiten a un recuerdo colectivo de un conjunto social, es decir, una comuna que evidencia como su protagonismo dentro del sistema va perdiendo importancia debido a las cercanías con la capital de mi país, en la cual se realizan actividades culturales y mantención de edificios historiales. Mi intención es reflejar una realidad periférica Trabaje basándome en la utilización de material precario que acostumbran utilizar muchas viviendas de sectores rurales de escasas condiciones, que protegen sus ventanas con trozos de lata o madera. De este modo, remito mi idea de abandono y “precariedad”, trabajando con óleo y aerógrafo sobre pequeños trozos de lata que conforman la imagen.

I'm Alejandra Basauri Bustamante, visual artist. Currently I dedicate myself, in a timely manner, to painting. I have a degree in Art from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Santiago de Chile. My expressive initiative as an artist is to create a discourse from my vision as an active subject of a context to which I belong and, through my images, to be able to express and generate a concept that encompasses a topic beyond my "subjective expression". In summary, my The personal theme is based on the questioning of women and their stigmatization as a Sexual Image within the different mass media (television, internet, magazines, etc.). From Painting, my proposal is to question, with artistic and conceptual search purposes , whether this stigmatization or predominance of women as a representative of sexuality, (the main theme in the media of images and genres) has achieved a development in which women have become active individuals in our society or, on the contrary , the excess and manipulation of sexual images of women has only solidified the ideal of "Sexual Object". Within my personal proposal I have experienced the work of painted bodies for the performance of my performances reinforcing with the presentation of my videos. These means used them beyond the simple use of the naked body painted as a protagonist. In these media, through my videos, I always decided to create a narration or reading of a specific situation that contains a mostly expressive visual message, rather than a literal narrative on a topic. My intention in my work, beyond visualizing an event, is to convey a collective feeling towards reality, from my personal perspective that, due to belonging to a context or society, is transformed into a discourse that empathizes with "Other " That is to say, that the spectator can read, when observing an image, an opinion or theme with which it is identified and create a "visual dialogue". On the other hand, I try not to escape from the margins of beauty instituted by artistic history; beauty that is found in the social collective unconscious. I appeal to beauty to attract the attention of the viewer, bearing in mind that beauty is present in various aspects of our reality, from the sublime to the abject. In another aspect I have carried out painting workshops for therapeutic purposes at the Salvador de Santiago Hospital in Chile.
