About The Artwork

«[…] En cuanto reconocí el sabor del pedazo de magdalena mojado en tila que mi tía me daba (aunque todavía no había descubierto y tardaría mucho en averiguar el porqué ese recuerdo me daba tanta dicha), la vieja casa gris con fachada a la calle, donde estaba su cuarto, vino como una decoración de teatro a ajustarse al pabelloncito del jardín que detrás de la fábrica principal se había construido para mis padres, y en donde estaba ese truncado lienzo de casa que yo únicamente recordaba hasta entonces; y con la casa vino el pueblo, desde la hora matinal hasta la vespertina y en todo tiempo, la plaza, adonde me mandaban antes de almorzar, y las calles por donde iba a hacer recados, y los caminos que seguíamos cuando hacía buen tiempo […]» Marcel Proust. “En busca del tiempo perdido”) En determinados momentos nuestra memoria nos asalta, se materializa dejándonos incluso a su merced. Y cuando eso no ocurre nos sucede que sentimos una urgente necesidad de recuerdos. Pero nuestra memoria es un ser esquivo, nuestros recuerdos y nuestros olvidos no nos resultan tranquilizadores. En los siguientes cuadros he trabajado en torno a los recuerdos que provocan en nosotros la Navidad, una época que no deja a nadie indiferente. En ella todos, de diferente manera, sufrimos ataques de memoria. En Navidad el pasado y el presente se funden y las sensaciones antiguas vuelven a estar a flor de piel.
