About The Artwork

(de la exposición "El deseo") Es motivo de confrontación entre dos grupos humanos constituidos por alquimistas. La flor como símbolo del alma. Podría decirse que la serie de imágenes creadas por Ana Mendez tiene que ver con el deseo como centro recurrente de la conducta humana desde la mas trivial a sus diversas vinculaciones con lo divino. Dicho de otra manera, proponen una narrativa visual en torno a ese impulso, afectivo, físico, o espiritual, terrenal o mítico, que acosa y gratifica a todos los individuos. Al anhelo exaltado o cauteloso, que permite alcanzar fugaces segundos de éxtasis, capturar un objetivo material o la posibilidad de ser redimido, el afán por dejar huellas vitales capaces de vencer a la muerte. Siento, tengo la convicción obtenida a través de los diálogos sostenidos con la artista, que la mencionada serie de imágenes elige los estadios mas elevados del deseo, aunque de manera evasiva, intangible, se dejen traspasar por brisas esquivas, inasibles, no tienen que ver con la sensualidad entendida como el placer de los sentidos sino como fuerza sensorial, con todo el amplio espectro relativo a la capacidad de sentir. Sentir desde lo biológico o desde lo espiritual. Si existe sensualidad , esta se vincula , con un modo de ejecutar la pintura. Un deseo que juega, como en el verso de Elliot ("Abril es el mes mas cruel, criando lilas de la tierra muerta, mezclando memoria y deseo, removiendo turbias raíces con la lluvia de primavera...". El entierro de los muertos.T.S Elliot). El refinamiento expresivo, la sensualidad visual y la suavidad en el aspecto pictórico son otro factor importante el el resultado de la obra. La justa y armónica relación entre sensualidad formal y austera poética expresiva, instauran escenarios que se abren sucesivamente como en un rebosante juego de imprevisibles cajas chinas. La memoria del deseo y el infructuoso deseo por deshabitar la memoria Alfredo Torres

Ana Mendez is an Uruguayan and Spanish artist. She currently lives in Madrid. To Talk about the work of Ana Mendez is to talk about the content of magical, fanatastic and mythological elements, perceived by the characters in the picture as part of the norm. The existence of magical elements is never explained. It is the presence of the sensory as part of the perception of reality. Ana Mendez works with the notion of time in her work, but this is perceived as cyclical, not linear, as in some philosophical traditions. The artist distorts the notion of time for the present and the past is repeated and intermingle. The simple transformation of the ordinary and every day in an experience that includes supernatural or fantastic experiences, to remind us of the complexity of human nature.
